I have an Arlo Base and have one Pro 4 camera added to the base but I can’t get my new Essential camera to add to the base.   The Essential camera will only connect via WiFi.  See screenshots. Can the Essential camera connect to a base vs WiFi?

All pro and ultra cameras can connect to a VMB4xxx or a VMB5000 base.  The full compatibility list is here:

The Gen 2 cameras cannot be connected to a base right now.  Arlo has said they will add that feature, but they haven't said when.

Thank you, Stephen. We bought the cameras hoping to connect to the base to save videos.  I did not see on their website the Essential camera could not connect to the base. 

 

Do you know if the PRO series will connect to the Base?

 

Thank you for your help with my question!
