Is it normal for these cameras to stop working after 1 year and just not charge or if they do charge, just to randomly disconnect from the network and disappear off your camera list? These cameras are past the one year warranty now, so I'm not sure if it's worth the money to replace them. I don't want to have to buy new cameras every year and I haven't had any luck with technical support.
Anyone else had this issue or are we expected to replace cameras every year?

Did you get this answered? I am having the same problem. At first I thought it was the solar panel, but since I've brought the camera inside it constantly loses its connection.

Yes and as you stated I am not having help in getting this remedied.
And on checking back it has only been 8 months or less. But unable to have them check online because it removed itself from the app so that camera is not on the program to click on to send them the culprit with the issue. And it is not wanting to reconnect to the network after scanning the scan code.

You can click on any camera within the app that can lead you to support. If the camera in question is not showing up go ahead and choose one that is then just let the rep know when you call.

I started having the same issue after having it just a year. Very disappointing.

I think we need a class action lawsuit on essential spotlight cameras. If anyone wants to get that started because these cameras are the worst. I’ve had 3 of 5 do this very thing. One I even sent back to arlo because luckily it was under warranty and then that new camera did the same thing again. Now, just this week, I lost 2 more. All my old cameras (the ones they stopped supporting) work fine but the new essential spotlights are dropping like flies. My mother had one of her 4 fail a month ago too. All have the same issues that have failed but all in different places or households. That’s an arlo problem!!! If you google tons of people have the same problem. I think I’m going to stop using these permanently. Sucks but I feel like I have no choice. Customer service tells me they are all defective after trouble shooting—-yeah and it’s not my fault. It’s a problem on arlo!
