How do I connect my camera to WiFi?

[SarahMar]

I am setting up our camera for the first time. I’ve connected the hub to the WiFi and now when I walk upstairs with my camera it says it’s not connect to the internet? It is about 20 ft from a google dot extender. I have great WiFi on my phone in this room. How can I manually connect it to the WiFi?? Is it because the Arlo Hub is on a different floor? It is a new home.

Likely yes.  The camera connects to a closed WiFi system hosted by the base.

How far is the base from the camera?  Does it work reliably when it's in the same room as the base?
