Using old Arlo/Netgear equipment

[Lyfiz2shrt]

I received a set of Arlo HD wire free security cameras as a baby shower gift around 2016.  At the time, we lived in a place that had security, but when we moved into a new house recently I tried to install the cameras and the Netgear base won’t pair with the Arlo app.  I did some research and found that the two had split.  Surely, they offer some support or compatibility.  These things were brand new in the box.  Can I use the cameras with an Arlo base?  The model # is VMS3330-100NAS.  Just hate to toss these in the trash.

The cameras are end-of-life, but still ought to work.

However, there have been several users who've said they can not install their old bases and cameras.

I don't know if Arlo will resolve those issues or not.  I suggest hanging on to the equipment for a while, and check back here again.

Hi @Lyfiz2shrt 

Have you tried installing the baby camera directly to your wifi network as well?
