Hub drops offline thru NordVPN

rawier1709 — Sun, 08 Oct 2023 14:02:39 GMT

I'm running an Arlo VMB4540 hub with a Wireless Video Doorbell and two Arlo 4 cameras. Hub is connected to my Eero router, which is then connected to a Privacy Hero VPN router running NordVPN. My problem is that the hub drops offline periodically, and then reconnects. Iwon't swear to it, but it seems to drop offline for around a minute, connects for a minute, drops offline, etc., etc. I've pinged NordVPN support about this but haven't heard back yet. Anyone in the community have any advice? I have run with Privacy Hero's own VPN and didn't have this issue.

Will you see if the issue still persists with the VPN disconnected.

Switched to another VPN (Privacy Hero) and this doesn't happen. Won't claim that things don't occasionally drop offline with Privacy Hero, but it certainly doesn't happen with such alarming regularity. I think we can consider this one closed and I may take it up with either NordVPN or FlashRouters (the router vendor)
