I have 2 separeate base stations to extend the range.  This caused the cameras to be on separate systems.  I am now limited when creating new rules.  As an example I want the outside camera to detect motion and then the front door must start recoring.  This is not possible because it is on separate base stations.  How do I combine the 2 base stations to be seen as just one system?

Unfortunately you can't at the moment.  I've had a suggestion open since the Q cameras first came out to allow them to be integrated with the wireless cameras so modes/rules would include both.  The second base station has the same issue - they're separate entities so have to be set up separately. I see that the Q intgration is under investigation - perhaps that work would also work for second base stations but can't be sure.  You can add kudos to any existing suggestions in the Arlo Idea Exchange section here and/or create your own suggestion to try to get the capability added.

Thanks, lets hope they add the functionality soon.
