Look at the bottom for a label that shows VMBxxxx. Is the base active in your account and has the latest firmware? Your mesh network has nothing to do with connecting to a base. The base connects to your router (or a satellite) via the Ethernet cable and provides its own separate WiFi network for the cameras.</P> Sun, 29 Dec 2024 14:55:08 GMT https://community.arlo.com/t5/Arlo/Vmb5000-Base-station/m-p/2433144#M97841 jguerdat 2024-12-29T14:55:08Z
