Are there any WiFi boosters available for these cameras?

We have XFINITY and the signal is very weak no matter with a higher speed plan. Plus, their xfi booster pods do NOT support  ARLO. 
I was told to contact you to check.

 

Thank you,

First, the Pro 2 cameras connect to the closed wifi system generated by the base/hub.  So the cameras are not using your xfinity wiif at all.

 

That said, the range from the base is similar to the range in most routers.  The base wifi cannot be extended - but you can purchase a second base that you can put somewhere in the house that is closer some of the cameras (and perhaps shift the existing base to a better spot).  You will need to get ethernet to both bases.
