Setup for Ultra 2 Camera without Smart Hub

WhiteFields — Thu, 16 Jun 2022 19:56:18 GMT

I am trying to connect an Ultra 2 camera to the app without using a SmartHub but when I try to add a new device the app keeps asking me to plug in my SmartHub to an ethernet cable. Arlo says I can use the camera without a SmartHub, but seems like I can't. One Arlo help page says I can simply press the "Connect without SmartHub" button but I can't find it. Any ideas?

You can't, as that particular camera doesn't support direct connection to your home wifi.

Where are you seeing this? Are you sure this info applies to the Ultra 2?

Thank you for the answer. I read THIS ARTICLE and thought it was for all Arlo devices.
