Hi all,

 

I need help please.

 

For some reason, when I reset my Arlo Pro 2 camera (take the battery out and reinstall it), the infra-red lights come on and then the blue and amber lights flash for a minute. The infra-red lights stay on and doesn't connect.

 

Please help!

That does not reset the camera. It just reboots the thing.

 

A Pro 2 reset, putting it back to its factory state, happens when you press the synch button, and keep pressing it until the LED shows a quick sequence of flashes. ~20 seconds should do it.

 

You can then add the camera back to your system.

Believe that is the reset for the GO ?

 

for Pro/pro2, no real reset except pulling battery and remove device

I tested it here before posting my message.

 

A long press certainly removed the camera and reset the settings.
