Hi All,

 

Our Arlo baby started making a weird sound and we tried our best but it never stopped till the battery died. We tried doing the hard-rest but everything was in vain. Netgear isn't replying via twitter, so I'm posting this query in case someone can help me identify the problem. The worst case scenario can be when Arlo-baby is installed on the crib and there is no way the sound can be stopped using Mobile APP and hard-rest.

Anytime something weird happens, after unplugging you can turn the battery off...( under feet base there is a switch )

Leave it off for a while and then attempt a RESET ( on side small hole , holding in with paperclip for 10 secs )

 

 

As a PS support contact is here; https://www.arlo.com/en-us/support/contact.aspx

Thanks, TomMac.

 

I have posted a video also in the first reply to support my point. But thanks for the pointers.

sanaM,

 

Thank you for the video description of the issue. Are you still experiencing this issue after powering the camera down and plugging in back in? Please let us know.

Yes, James.

 

I think the unit is defective and we have already passed 15 days return policy from Best Buy :(. 

 

We bought ORBI and it is exceptional and that's why we left all other products and went for Arlo Baby and now this is acting up.
