arlo pro 2 base station <---> router connection minimum specs

[geriatricjerry]

just bought arlo pro 2 the box should get here tomorrow.

what speed is necessary to connect base station to my router?

i have an existing Netgear powerline network with 100, 200, and 500 megabit adapters.

will these work or do i need to upgrade to gigabit for the arlo to work?

i know internet upload speed must be 1 mbps or greater. i am asking only about the local area network connection. 

thank you.

The base will connect at 100Mbps if available although 10Mbps should also work fine. You're fine.

First see if you really need to use Powerline. If the wifi signal is good enough, it might work with a direct connection to the router.

Second, don't be fooled by the speed claims on those Powerline adapters. The 500s, for example, have 100 Mbps LAN.

But as @jguerdat says, that should be fine. It worked here. But I now have the base station near the router. No problems, even with a long wifi haul.
