I have 8 Arlo Go cameras in various positions around a field. Two of them are always going offline. I've changed their positions, cleaned the sim cards, done factory resets, put them in the same positions as other cameras but still they go offline. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thank you.

An update is now starting to roll out for Arlo Go users who experienced offline issues with their camera. We expect it to reach all Arlo Go cameras in the coming week. Users may need to reboot (remove/re-insert the battery) and recharge the battery to receive the update, if your camera is already back online, no further interaction is necessary.
Additionally, we would like to clarify that this issue was not related to the 3G shutdown that has occurred on some carrier networks.
Thanks for your patience and understanding. We'll continue to closely monitor your feedback to ensure your issue has been resolved.

Arlo is actively working with carriers to identify all the variables that could be contributing to this issue. It is a high priority for Arlo.

Thank you for the feedback & continued patience while we work to resolve this issue. We are actively working with our partner at AT&T to troubleshoot the situation.

Based on your image, being offline doesn't necessarily mean the battery is dead. It's more likely that the cell service in the camera location is weak. If you take the camera to someplace with known good signal strength, does it work properly?

Arlo Go balcony test:
Signal: full strength.
Results: Test duration about 7 days. Camera was two times( each third day) going offline. First time -about 12 hours, second time- 18 hours, and come back by itself.
My friend have same camera, never been offline, we trying put on same place for test, his camera work all time with out any issues.
What your suggestion for next step, warranty or change network service to another operator?

How old is the camera? If outside the warranty period (1 year for most places) contacting support may provide some extra support but not a replacement.
You can't change service providers - different radios in the camera would be needed.

If you swapped the locations with other working cameras and the same issue appeared, it may just be the cameras.
Are they under warranty ? ( 1 yr ) If so, you may want to contact Arlo service

I have a 6 Arlo Go cams that have been working fine until the last 2 weeks.
Now they constantly drop off the network.
I brought them into the AT&T store and they gave me brand-new Sim cards which did not solve the problem. The cameras continue to drop off the network.
I noticed this on the Arlo app as well as the web client on the computer.
I’m at a loss on this one.

(I am in the U.S.)
I have been using 6 of the Arlo Go cams over the last year without any problems. Within the last 2 weeks, all 6 cameras continuously drop off the network. I am noticing this happen on the iphone app and the web browser on the computer.
I just brought the cameras into the AT&T store hoping updated sim cards would resolve the issue and it did not. They told me there is nothing else they can do on their end.
So I turned to this forum and I see others having the exact same issue. This leads me to believe it might be something on Arlo's end.
Now what happened over the last few weeks to cause this?
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

I am having the same problem but it is happening with ALL 6 of my Arlo Go cams and the problem started at the same time which was about 2 weeks ago. Too much of a coincidence for it to be faulty cameras.
I am seeing others on here reporting the exact same problem.

Hi @Briankook
May I ask which troubleshooting steps you have performed so far? I don't want to suggest any methods you have previously performed.

Hello and thanks for reaching out to me.
I made sure that I am using FULLY CHARGED batteries.
I brought all 6 cameras into the local AT&T store and they installed brand new sim cards in each camera, but that did not resolve the problem. Yes I made sure to restart all cams after the sim cards were replaced.
I specifically asked them if there is anything else that can be done on their end and they said "no" unfortunately.
I am certainly open for any other suggestions.
Thanks!
Brian

I just replaced the SIM cards again with unlimited data cards and I have the same problem.
At this point, I’m going to get away from these Arlo cams and go with the Reolink cams suggested by the AT&T rep.

I've had my camera for a couple years now and only have been experiencing constant offline in the past few week. I have a remote vacation home that doesn't have Wi-Fi so I went with my cellular company AT&T and pay for a dedicated line for my camera through LTE. I'm very frustrated with Arlo's lack of support helping to identify what the problem might be. I've been told that there should be a patch and a Firmware update now that 5G is being broadcasted.
My solution to getting back online:
I've gone to The camera home page, Click on * symbol in bottom right corner. Device setting-connected to, turned on (Roaming), Then waited to see the camera go back online.
This has been the only way I have been able to get reconnected when I log in remotely to view live.
when I log back out in back in later its offline. I've tried everything in my setting and nothing else seems to work.
Very frustrating

So do you think it’s an AT&T issue?
I do.
So far, nothing has worked.

Pardon my rambling about this as I’m just very frustrated that it no longer works and they don’t yet have a new one for att available. Not that I want to upgrade but I need the security of the camera in these locations. If anyone comes up with a solution please pass it along.
Thank you!

Thanks for the reply. I also upgraded all cameras to unlimited data per the request of my AT&T sales rep.
Unfortunately, that did not solve the problem.
Still trying to figure out if it is Arlo or AT&T's issue. Since you mentioned complaints from Verizon users, that also leads me to believe it is Arlo.
Does Arlo support ever reply on these threads? Please, help!
