My cams will run great, then they don’t run. They’ll record for 2 minutes, then only for seconds or a minute. My home isn’t large, no odd blockages. I’ve done EVERYTHING possible to cure this. So far my system is unreliable. I’m leaning on the base station as the problem. Can Arlo give a fix please? I’ve seen many others who share the same issues as I.

Hey ScottMc1,
Make sure that you don't have any interference going on between your Arlo Base Station and your cameras (such as router or modem).
You can also try optimizing motion detection or testing the motion detection test to make sure everything works properly:

Make sure you place your cameras at least 10 feet or 3 meters from the Base Station. You can refer to this article to learn how to prevent any interference going between your devices: How do I position my Arlo Pro 2 camera?

If your cameras are set to record until motion stops, then try setting them to record for a fixed time, and see if that works.
