Hi, 

 

I have just purchased four ARLO pro cameras. 

 

They are set up and connected however they continuously drop out and say connection to the server failed, or connection to the media server timed out?

 

Also I have them set up on my secondary screen on my computer however after only a coupole of minutes i have to keep clicking Live again to see a live stream. I just want them to continuously stream, Why is this?

 

Thanks

Are the cameras plugged into AC Power? If not it could be that the Pro cameras act this way to save battery life. I tested one of my Pro cameras that is plugged into AC power and after 5 minutes of Live Viewing it still had not timed out.

If your cameras are already plugged in, try moving your base station farther away from the router, as some routers cause interference with the base stations.
