Sorry if this is a dumb question. Is it possible to avoid wifi camera connection and instead get a usb-c to ethernet adaptor to directly link the camera with my router ?

if so what CAT ethernet cable is needed?

my system is 4+ years old ARLO Pro 2 cams

asking bc I'd like to thwart wifi jammers which would make the wireless camera useless

thanks for your help

If you were to purchase a Go 2, then you could use mobile data instead of WiFi.

 

There is no way to get a wired connection.

I can’t say I have seen a Ethernet camera product on their website.

 

As a guess it would be easier to whack the camera with a stick than to use a wifi jammer.

 

I recall someone did a video on how easy it was to use a toy to jam the wifi, haven’t tried it myself though.

The only camera that Arlo ever produced that could use Ethernet was the Q Plus indoor camera which hasn't been sold for years. The USB ports are for power delivery only.
