Choppy sound

I don’t see any resolution to fixing this problem by Arlo. I still have choppy sound I’ve updated firmware several times I’ve moved cameras around I’ve tried different cameras I’ve tried batteries I tried everything. I don’t see where that Arlo has fixed this problem if anybody else still has this problem please let them know. If there is a way to fix it and I don’t mean Arlo telling me I mean someone that has a camera let me know because Arlo will just keep shooting you problem solving resolutions that just don’t work. I’ve called Arlo several times their texts are working from home in the Philippines. Every time you call you get someone answering from their house with roosters crowing in the background something fierce it’s not even a joke it’s not funny I’m dead serious. I tell them I can’t hear them because of the roosters and they tell me we’re sorry that’s just the way our life is here were used to them we just ignore them. I’ve been on the phone as long as two hours and they just can’t tell you anything they just keep you running from one thing to the other that makes no sense their techs are Totally clueless. I have taped all my conversations with them I wish someone from the California headquarters would call me but every time you call you get the Philippines and you get nothing resolved. Please anybody if you have the same problem post let Arlo know what bad customer service they have they have the worst customer service ever they saw you were a $900 camera and they really just don’t care

Cryingman8,

I'd like to take a look at and potentially escalate your support ticket. Do you have a ticket number I can reference and escalate?

I also get choppy sound but only in live view. its like everything is in slow motion and "roboticy" .. the actual recordings the video is fine

Agree about their support, they are clueless and non technical, they just run you around in circles doing pointless tasks..

I dont know

I have the same issue. We’ve just moved and have a new router and the sound at times is super choppy, and unusable. Disappointing to say the least. We were in a different place with another Wi-Fi system but had different issues there too. Was really hoping now that we shelled out for a great network that the Arlo could keep up. Everything else in the place works marvelously, except the Arlo. I’m incredibly disappointed with this unit. I had such hope for it.

Is this occurring with your local 4k live streaming turned on?
