I have been having an issue with my Arlo Q camera. While it is running probably around 10-20 time a day it will do the following.

1. LED starts flashing blue for 2 minutes (I have check the app and it appears to be disconnected when this is happening). 

2. Then an audible buzz can be heard and the LED start flashing orange for around 5-10 seconds.

3. Then LED turns purple for a few seconds 

4. Then the LED goes back to solid blue.

This tends to sound like a hardware problem. I would remove the camera from Settings, My Devices and hold the reset button until the LED flashes amber. After it reboots, reconnect it normally as if new. If the same problem exists, use the Contact SUpport link at the bottom here to use your warranty.

I tried to remove the Arlo camera and then add it as if it was a new camera and it is still having the issue.  I tried a few more time just to check and the issue is still happening. Thank you for the suggestion. I will contact support and see what they say. I will make sure if I find a solution to post it in this thread.
