Any help appreciated. I’m trying to connect my Arlo Pro 2 to my AC charger/adapter and it’s not working. 2 messages come up. One says to disconnect and reconnect the wire at the camera end,. The other says to check the power is on. I’ve done both a few times to no avail! Help.
My base station is one that I bought with the very first Arlos (not pro), is this why it won’t connect to the mains? Help!!!

Are you using the original supplied adapter and cable ??

 

As to the base, it doesn't matter which model as the Arlo cams connect to any of the bases

The base has nothing to do with supplying power to the camera.

 

Make sure you're using the charger and cable that came with the camera. Other chargers can have issues and the cable needs to be beefy enough to carry the current needed.

Ah, that’s probably it. It was a spare camera my dad had and he said he had to get a cable off Amazon because he’s already using one camera with the original cable. I’ll try and get a more compatible cable, thank you!

Arlo does offer additional chargers and cables - check the accessories for the camera here under the Product link at the top.
