Should be fine. Upload minimum should be 1.5Mbps. 25mbps is around 3Mbps

All you need for the system to work is an ethernet connection to the base station that has internet access with ports 80, 123, 443 open.

If you haven't already bought an Arlo system, I recommend you get the Arlo Pro or Pro 2 and not the Arlo HD system

Thanks. Very helpful. Costco has them for sale but I didn't see which one they have.

We run 10 Arlo Pro 2s at the highest quality with no problem using HugesNet Gen 5 as our provider (25Mbps down and about 2 or 3 Mbps up). As mentioned, unlike most talk about speed, upload speed, not download, is all that matters when discussing security camera limits. We did try CVR but that eats into our data plan too much and is taxing in the other cameras.
