Arlo disconnects my wifi

peachearts — Sat, 13 Jan 2024 23:54:16 GMT

Over the last few weeks, I’ve noticed that when there’s motion detected on my Arlo ultra 2, it’ll disconnect my wifi momentarily. I have Netflix on the tv playing (for the toddler) and it’ll pause for maybe 1-2 minutes before continuing to play. This happens every time there is motion detected. There was a post from 2015 that highlighted this issue. I tried the solution recommended, which was to move the wifi router and the base station as far as the Ethernet cable allows. It didn’t work!I’ve had problems with these cameras from day 1 🙄 Does someone else have another solution that doesn’t cost money?

If you’re router is dual band you could have the tv on the 5ghz wifi instead of using the 2ghz wifi. Alternatively connect a Ethernet cable between the tv and the local router and bypass the wifi.
