My Arlo uses 400MB of data per week with both cameras OFF. Why?

Hi @pcorman

 

When you mention the cameras are off, are they disabled or are the batteries pulled out or are they offline? If the base station is powered on and connected to the Internet (LED green), it is going to communicate with the servers and use data.
