Any chance VMB4500 wireless performance was improved during the upgrade? I purchased a 2-camera Arlo Pro2 from Amazon which came with the VMB4500. Setup was ok with some trial and error on positioning and angle with satisfactory motion detection. Needing two more cameras, I follow that up with buying a 4-camera Arlo Pro2 from Amazon (great deal!) thinking I can just swap hardware into the 2-camera package and send it back, but it has the older VMB4000. I hookup the VMB4000 using the same cameras from the original 2-camera kit, and I feel that detection lag appears worst. Is it possible the new VMB4500 has better wireless performance than the older VMB4000? 4/21/20 pics are with VMB4500... 4/27/20 pics are with VMB4000 from two paths (from sidewalk and garage) off my front porch camera. I know everyone seems more concerned about the dB level of the siren (yeah, 4500 is wimpy). I will continue to monitor this, (check if time of day/shadows/contrast make a difference) but has anyone heard about motion lag improvement with 4500? Put's me in a quandry. At some point I will switch back to VMB4500.

Quandary not needed. You can try using both hubs side by side.
My old VMB4000 has just one role in life, as a horribly noisy alarm. All cameras are attached to a different hub. I can still get them to trigger the VMB4000.
