Is it possible for someone who doesn’t have an arlo login and password but does have access to network/base stations/router to access cameras or recordings somehow?

No, unless you are recording to external storage like a USB stick or SD card which can the be attached to a computer and viewed.

The recordings are stored on the cloud not on your network (unless USB/SD as mentioned above) likewise to view the cameras you need a login and password either for the app or for the web interface.

Thanks for the reply. There is external storage but this also cannot be accessed unless removed from base and plugged into PC, right?

Got it, was just making sure there weren’t any other less obvious ways that maybe I wasn’t aware of. Thanks again for your help!
