Adding cameras Arlo Wire-Free (VMC3030) system with 5 cameras. How to use both in one account?

I have an Arlo Wire-Free (VMC3030) system with 5 cameras. I also have purchased a SECOND Arlo Wire-Free (VMC3030) system with 4 cameras.

The ARLO site states “you will continue to have all the benefits that were included with the purchase of your camera. This includes free rolling 7-day cloud recording, live streaming, 2-way audio, local storage, and activity zones on up to 5 cameras.”

What is the CORRECT WAY to have BOTH SYSTEMS on one ACCOUNT? What is the charge for that?

Check Settings, Subscription for plans. The Premier and Elite plans give you 5 cameras so you'd have to add the discounted single camera plans for the additional ones.

The alternative is to create a second account with a second email address for the new system. Once that's set up, use Settings, Grant Access from the new account to the old one's email address so all cameras show up in one login. That will work for 90% of the time without the need to log into the new account.
