Has there been any discussion/mention/request of being able to use one of the USB ports on the back of the VMB4000 Base Station with a USB WiFi adapter eliminating the need for the Ethernet connection?

 

With the addition of the Siren this would be a great option as you are pretty limited with regards as to where you can place the Base Station due to the Ethernet requirement. With a WiFi dongle you could literally place it anywhere you wanted, useful at nigh time if using the Siren.

I ditched Arlo! As a Company they hold their Customers/Us in complete contempt! We beta test producs for them, the products only work properly for ~70% of the time at best!

If you are serious about your home or work security then look elsewhere! Get a ip Camera System with an NVR and some Blink XT cameras to cover the places you cannot run a cable to. You will NEVER regret moving away from Arlo!
