If the hotspot doesn't have an Ethernet port (a phone doesn't), you will need a WiFi extender that's connected to the hotspot and the base will connect via Ethernet to the extender. That will work fine.</P> Fri, 15 Mar 2019 14:48:11 GMT jguerdat 2019-03-15T14:48:11Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Setting-up-a-camera-at-a-site-without-internet-using-my-phone-as/m-p/1684525#M64927 <P>Relax. I know it doesn't work without an internet connection. What I'm wondering is if I can connect it to the internet using a phone (Samsung Galaxy S8) with a 5 Mbps upload. Trying to secure a construction site where internet is not yet set up. I would install the app on another phone to monitor it. Sorry if this is an utterly stupid question.</P> Fri, 15 Mar 2019 14:48:01 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Setting-up-a-camera-at-a-site-without-internet-using-my-phone-as/m-p/1684525#M64927 Sfgirl 2019-03-15T14:48:01Z https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Setting-up-a-camera-at-a-site-without-internet-using-my-phone-as/m-p/1684541#M64932 <P>Assuming you mean you want to set up a whole system using a hotspot, yes.
