montgomery1904,

Do you get an error message when trying to connect? Who is your ISP and what are your download/upload speeds? What doe the signal strength icon show for that camera?

Hi James,

It just shows a working symbol then goes back to showing the play symbol. My ISP is wow. 452 mbps Download Speed, 51 mbps upload speed. I usually show 1 to 2 bars signal.

montgomery1904,

With those speeds, that likely isn't the issue. The signal strength however could be the problem, as a test, try moving the camera within a few feet from your SmartHub and attempt a live stream. Do you get the same results?

I spoke to Arlo Tech Support and they indicated that the base firmware update on Dec 7 likely has issues. My problems started around that same time as well. I had been functioning very well until that update came out. They're calling my help ticket "weak camera signals". Hopefully we'll all be fixed soon, but the last time there was a bad update (July 2019), it took at least 30 days before it was resolved. Good Luck to us all.
