My Arlo does not works in the Arizona summer heat of 120 plus degrees what can I do?

I have 5 Arlo Pro 2 with one base station in the Arizona desert, I the winter time is all good but summer time when is sometimes above 120 degrees and the cameras are outside in direct sunlight, the arlo goes off line and then stops communicating with the Internet, I have a Verizon Jetpack (wifi) connected to a router by wifi then the router connect to the Arlo base station by ethernet cable.

 

so when is too hot in the summer and it goes off line I need to disconnect the power cable from Arlo base station and then plug the power cable again to reboot and the Arlo base station reconnect to Internet automatically

 

the problem is I need to drive 60 miles to do this reboot, we use the Arlo for our security system in a storage yard

 

Below is one of the cameras info

Arlo Pro 2

Firmware: 1.125.16.0_36_49c31dd

Hardware: H5

Serial #: A0B19270A09CC

 

thank you

Arlo Pro 2 cameras have a maximum temperature threshold 104°F. The cameras will not operate beyond that and will cease functionality to prevent damage to the hardware.
