Ability To Sound Alarm for Pro/Update Emails
You use to be able to have the Pro cameras sound the alarm when activated, Not that can only be done with the Pro 2.
Way to not tell anyone and take away a big deterrent someone uses for home security. Why doesn't Arlo ever email what the updates are so we know? Close to ditching the system because of bad customer service issues like this.

Have you tried to configure this with a custom mode. The option is still available.

I was trying to get you to use some brain power to learn to navigate the site and find the answer for yourself which is by far the best solution.

I can’t fins how to when searching. Can’t someone from Arlo just tell me how? Or send me a direct link. What the point of getting Arlo if it’s harder than a wired system. Needs to be more user friendly or have a list of how to do’s
While I agree on wanting systems to be easier to use and more intuitive in general, I don’t see a correlation regarding whether it is wired or wireless in terms of ease of use. The ease of use is a completely separate issue from how a camera is powered and/or transmits video and data. So, if all things were equal, the primary reason to buy an Arlo wireless system rather than a wired system would be that your application requires wireless cameras. If not, you should never buy a wireless camera. Wires are always superior in terms of power and most often better in terms of signal strength, reliability and immunity interference.

Re: Ability To Sound Alarm for Pro/Update Emails
And I’m not trying to spend a lot of “brain power” on cameras that cost over $1000, nor do I want to spend unnneded time on a forum searching for answers to questions that Arlo should have easy links to. The system is overpriced for what it is. That should drive ease of use with the engineers.
But you links did help.
