I have 2 Pro 4 cameras connected to wifi, no hub. I'd like to be able to control both with a single mode, but each camera has their own modes so that I have to arm/disarm each separately. 

Is there a way to control multiple wifi connected cameras with the same mode(s)?

Yes but... You would need to buy a hub and connect the cameras to that. You would then be able to control them together.

Right, no problem with a hub. I didn't realize that the wifi connected cameras would need to be independently controlled. So if I add a couple more then I have to arm/disarm 4 cameras individually. That makes the whole wifi connection option (and the reason I updated to Pro 4) a lot less appealing.

This can also be done with the new "feed" experience.  Though it doesn't support custom modes - you only have the three built-in ones (Arm Home, Arm Away, and Standby).  You can edit them though.
