Hi All,

  The website makes it very clear that to have cloud service for more than 5 Arlo Pro cameras I need to pay more monthly money.

 My question is this, What IF I dont want cloud back up for that 6th camera. Perhaps this is just a camera I view in live mode on ocassion. Is there a way to have 6 cameras but only 5 of them are recorded to the Arlo cloud?

 

To further the discussion, how about recording to a local USB drive or mem card? Can I put any cameras over 5 on local record only?

 

Thank you for your replies.

On the Basic level ( free ) you can ONLY have 5 cameras ( with the exception of a couple of 6 pack bundles that are sold special )

 

That's it... you can sync more than 5 cameras but you must disable all but 5 ( listed in settings under camera management , if still there )

No cloud, no usb record, no just live viewing

 

Some get around the 5 cam limit by opening a second account with another system and sharing the cameras back to the first...
