Are you certain the new adapter has the same specs (including polarity) as the original?
Was there any sign of a utility power issue when it failed (brown out, etc)?

Thank you for the reply. I purchased the new adapter from Amazon, it has the same specs and is specifically listed as being compatible. Has over 1k 5 star reviews. I was unable to find a direct replacement from Arlo, so this was as sure as I could be. There were no signs of power issues. I have other devices connected to that outlet and power strip and none showed complications. I also connected it to a different slot in the power strip itself. The new adapter is exhibiting the same behavior as the original Arlo adapter.
Have you tried a factory reset of the base? https://www.arlo.com/en_eu/support/faq/1057976/How-can-I-reset-my-Arlo-SmartHub-or-base-station-to-t...

Yes, but since the base station is not powering on it has no effect.
Well, we know it isn't booting up. But that doesn't mean there is no power.
In any event, if the factory reset doesn't work, then something must have failed in the base hardware. The next step would be to find another base (which is definitely annoying, especially given the timing).

Hey @Hoopsrm125
Let me look in to this for you and I'll see what I can do. I see the base seemed to fail a few days after your hardware warrant expired. I'll get back to you soon.
Thanks!

I have contacted the Arlo Team and was able to approve a replacement VMB4000 for you as an RMA. I will provide another update as soon as possible.
