(1st post- hi from UK everyone) Everything has been working fine for a year or more until I decided to remove the memory stick from the base station in order to archive recordings. Having done so I reformatted the stick (FAT32) and replaced it in the base station. Since then the web portal says "Your base station is offline" when accessed from my Win7 laptop and my Android tablet alike. I've checked that it's connected by ethernet cable to my broadband router; the base station is showing three green LEDs and the router is also working normally. I've power cycled both the base station and the router without success. Any suggestions would be welcome...

Thanks for that suggestion - I examined the ethernet cable but it is fully located at both ends. I unplugged it and back into a different ethernet socket on the router but no improvement. The three leds on the base unit are solid green which means it can access the Internet, so what else could be worth playing with?

I tried again after removing the memory stick without success. I will try it again shortly.
I plan to turn the power to the base station off, remove the stick, wait a couple of minutes, then restart.
Any suggestions for variations / additions would be cautiously welcomed!

So I have switched off the base unit, removed the memory stick, waited for the regulation two minutes, then restarted.
It settled down to three steady green LEDs very quickly, which I understand to indicate that it is connected to the internet.
But sadly the the web portal is still saying "Your base station is offline".
Further assistance is requested! Thanks in advance.

Is there a support person monitoring these messages who can provide any comment or assistance? I really need to re-establish communication with the security system as soon as possible.
It looks to me as if the base station is happy that it can communicate with the internet, as the three LEDs are green, the central one flashing briefly at intervals. When I use my Win7 laptop or my Android tablet to access the web portal I can view and modify the config settings, but when I select the Devices view the recent camera images are shaded and each overlaid with the message "Your base station is offline ... ". I assume from this that I am accessing my normal view of the 'cloud' but that it can no longer communicate with my base station.

This has been picked up by Arlo Support, but they seem to have gone quiet now after I provided the info they asked for. Can someone please let me know what is happening? Thanks...
