Arlo Pro sporadically recording

[DC24]

My cameras are alerting but only sporadically recording?  Any thoughts about why the recordings aren't logging or showing up in the email alerts?

I think Arlo servers were having problems.  I didnt get anything from 158 to 415 today.  Something is messed up.

I live in NY and we are having a big storm right now. I'm getting alerts to my mobile saying activity, but I am not getting emails or new videos. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Yes, my email address is verified and alerts are setup. They just all of a sudden stopped around 5pm tonoght.

Thanks

Same, getting lots of motion alerts and no recordings. Not good.

Also having the same issue. I hope it is recording to local drive. I see the drive icon lit when motion is detected. I'll check once it's recoding to the cloud again.

James, are they still saving to the base station (USB storage) or are they not recording at all?

I know my Arlo Pro 2 saves to USB flash drive if I disconnect its Internet connection. So, I assume it should still record.

I am also having problems with alerts emails to EarthLink.net addresses. However, I get them on non-EarthLink.net email address. 😕

Thanks. I found Netgear had to remove the block to alerts@arlo.com from EarthLink. https://community.netgear.com/t5/Arlo/No-e-mail-notifications-today/m-p/1516883/highlight/false for the details.

Thank you for the information and valuable contribution to the Arlo Community @ant!

I'll definitely add this step to my list of troubleshooting steps! 🙂 

Warm Regards,

Christine
