Ac power has been disconnected from your Arlo device.Activity zones are currently disabled. and a red circle with a ! in it shows on both the Arlo pro and the Arlo pro 2.     We checked and they are online and the power is NOT OFF.   Any idea whats wrong?

Its on an android galaxy s20. Works on my pc but not on phone app. On the camera position part of app works but not on main portion. Its a pro. Not pro2 so no zones. On battery. Replaced battery. Deleted then reloaded app. Reset main base. Deleted affected cameras from base and re installed etc. Bad app update!!!!!

Thank you for your feedback & detailed reports. The Arlo development team is currently investigating this issue with the No AC Power warning. We will provide an update as soon as we have more information to share with the community.

The support has been extremely poor. I would have expected more from Arlo in resolving the issue. I have been a dedicated customer for over 5 years and this is the support that I get? I am seriously thinking of moving my business elsewhere and letting the rest of the world know per social media of how you do not support your customers. Someone from Arlo please let us know of timelines and when we can expect a solution? Please! We have all wasted many hours today trying to come up with a solution and nothing works, its obviously a bad update. Who is in charge there? They are not doing a good job at all. Respond and speak to your customers.

@dcfox1I absolutely did read it but just like Bob said dont count on anything from them. I have been with Arlo for 5 years and the support has been terrible. I will believe it once I get this resolved and from all my prior experiences I am not too optimistic. I hope I am wrong.

I was on live chat with support in the morning for almost 2 hours. We deleted and added cameras back on, reset the complete base. PC works but app does not. After we deleted and added the cameras, now they go off every 2 minutes. All camera batteries have been drained and nothing has been resolved with no notification of timelines. They can see our messages in the forum but they choose to ignore us that is what really upsets me, very unprofessional. How long do we wait for another update fix 1 month, 2 weeks? Let us know, we need our cameras to work.

I am having the same issue as everyone else from what I can see. I receive a message on my android app saying "AC power has been disconnected from your Arlo device. Activity zones are currently disabled" I have always ran my cameras on batteries and this all started after the update from yesterday, bfore the update everything worked fine. I was in live chat for almost 2 hours today with Arlo and they could not resolve. What do I do?

Hi, I've read bunches of posts about the "ac power has been disconnected from your Arlo device" message while cameras aren't showing up in the app.  Mostly people say Activity Zones have to be disabled, but my settings don't have that feature.  What other things might cause this?  Right now my system is de

This Android update problem (15 October 2020) is so bad, on the Samsung S8 clicking on the 'OK' message cannot continue to live view. Get this update fixed ASAP.
