One time authorization just about every time I got to my arlo to check my cams

It asks me to authorize just about every time I got to my arlo to check my cams. We keep asking to get this fixed and always ignored!!!!! If someone wants to do this non-sense, make it an option!

Does this occur on any other web browsers as well? Have you tried clearing your cache and testing again?

Are you frequently rebooting the PC? I believe you will need to re-trust every time you do that.

I'd prefer that myself, but I don't think Arlo will do that. They mandated 2FA shortly after some really creepy stuff happened with Ring cameras, as they wanted to prevent that from happening to Arlo systems.

I think it's from closing the browser rather than rebooting (*which also closes the browser). I leave the browser open all the time and use sleep rather than shutdown with no issues.
