Can I use Arlo cams without WIFI?

I am wondering if I can use an Arlo camera system at a site that does not have a Wi-Fi system in place.. I have a property that needs security cameras outdoors, but there is not Wi-Fi on site.

The Arlo Go 2 camera is one option - it uses mobile (cellular) data. But it will need a mobile data plan as well as an Arlo Secure subscription.

Battery life will likely be an issue, so you probably also should get the solar panel to reduce the need to charge the camera.

No, they require either wifi or a base/smarthub (which creates a wifi network for the cameras).
