battery life

[CanukInAugusta]

Anyone else had the problem that recently their Arlo cameras drain their batteries fast (like 2 days). I have 3 Arlo cameras for about 2 years and this has just started happening recently. Their has been no network changes. My setup is ;

3XArlo Pro 3  cameras activated in August 2021.. Firmware is the latest - 1.080.14.2_6_b1306bd. Power management for all three is set to Best Battery Life.

I use the web interface on my Mac, and the App on my iPhone (version 5.2.2 of the App). The app is new as of 1 week ago. 

I have a smart hub VMB4540r3, also with the latest firmware. The cameras are connected to the hub so I can record local storage.

Debugging steps

1. I unplugged the smart hub and plugged it back in.
2. I removed the batteries from the cameras and put them back in.
3. I did a factory reset of the cameras by removing them via the app and adding them back in.

The problems still remains. Any ideas?

Anything new or moved that's a wireless devices that uses the 2.4GHz band near your hub? Interference can cause connection issues, causing battery depletion.  You can try moving the hub as far away from your router as practical to see if that helps.
