I am unable to connect the base to my home Wi-Fi. It asked me to enter my Wi-Fi password and I do but it says that it is the incorrect password.

Make sure there are no special characters in the PW if a external camera like the Q or Baby....

 

But IIRC, the base doesn't need a PW, it just connects via the ethernet cable. 

( tho mind that there NO access to the Base wifi that is created as it is for cameras only )

As @TomMac says, you cannot connect to the wifi from an Arlo base/hub. It is a closed network that talks to your cameras.

 

You plug the hub into a router and it does the communicating with your cameras.

 

But what do you mean by "unable to connect the base to my home Wi-Fi"? What are you trying to do?
