I have the same issue. Called support today and they advised to reset the entire system. I told them that this was happening ever since they pushed out the update his week.

Same. Purchased system on Aug9, and upon installation, downloaded latest firmware updates. Noticed cameras were missing significant activity (on 100% sensitivity). Opened app to see device statuses, and cameras were offline. Restarted base station, cameras came back online. This has happened to me three times in as many days.

Wow. I need to double check that I have two more weeks for a refund. I mean, mine has not been TOO bad......yet. Two events in two weeks but otherwise working well. But the things I’m reading.....

Just called Arlo tech support and they advised that wi-fi interference on the 2.4 Ghz band may be the culprit. They recommended that I change the channel for the 2.4Ghz band in my router settings. Mine happens to be automatically selecting channel 1 as the optimal channel with no option for setting it manually, so I suppose I'll be on the phone with AT&T support this week.

So support didn’t mention that this is a known issue with the base station firmware causing the base to lockup twice a day then?

No. Only offered interference.

I reset the entire system and took everything off line and removed the cameras. I still had the most up to date firmware on it. I also moved the base station and plugged it right into my router. Was using an extender recently. So far seems to be working better.

I spoke to two co- workers today who both have to different brands of systems. They both said these sort of things are common with their brands also. I guess we just need to settle and accept it all.
As long as it works 90% of the time.
