What questions do you have?

[Michelle-Housto]

We subscribed to the recording service this year, as my husband mentioned, and everything was working fine.

However, after a recent storm, we replaced our internet router, and everything related to the internet was reset. Since then, the Arlo camera has stopped recording like it used to. I’m not sure what happened—whether the plan isn’t recognizing the new internet setup or if our service plan has expired.

I need someone to check what’s causing the Arlo recording system to stop working.

Can you assist with this?

Thanks

Replacing the router may be the issue. Are your cameras directly connected to your WiFi or do they connect to a SmartHub? The easiest thing to do when getting a new router is to change the router settings for the WiFi to use the same SSID and password as before so any device that was connected will automatically connect to the new one. However, if those weren't changed, you must use the app to change the WiFi connection for each camera. Is that what you have already tried? If so, try removing one camera from the account, reset it as shown in the FAQ below and see if that works.

Can you livestream the cameras?

Have you checked your subscription plan?  Browse to my.arlo.com on a PC.

[Michelle-Housto]

Yes, I am able to livestream, but I cannot record.

I have logged in, but I cannot see the subscription plan or my subscription history. Therefore, I’m not sure if my subscription has expired. I need someone to check this for me—that’s why I need live customer service assistance.

I believe we have paid for and subscribed to the service for the entire year.

please refer my first message post here,

If you see "Library" in your app menu, try following this guide to see your current plan:

If instead you see "Feed" and "Dashboard", follow this one:

This is a user-to-user forum, and I don't work for Arlo.  So I cannot check the status of your account or subscription.

If the instructions above aren't enough, then post back and I'll tag an Arlo Mod, who should be able to help.

[Michelle-Housto]

Thank you for the information,

i followed your instructions, i went to Library, i cannot see the current plan, it only show me the Date without recording.

i need Arlo ppl to look at my order history and confirm my current status....

is this so hard for Arlo? why is't so INCONVENIENT, I AM SO UPSET.

Then you did not follow my instructions.

If you SEE Library in your app menu, then

1. Log in to my.arlo.com on a PC 
2. Click Settings > Subscription.

[Michelle-Housto]

I log in to myarlo.com on PC, then go to Settings, the "Subscription" is in a grey color which I cannot click,

Are you using the primary account (the one the cameras were installed to)?

I am tagging the mods - @JamesC , @BrookeN , @ShayneS - as they can assist.
