Morning,

 

I have brought 2 new Arlo wireless cameras and am trying to install through my D7000 nighthawk router. I successfully installed my Arlo Q but can't get the wirless ones to come up. I gave up on the D7000 yesterday and managed to install them through the base station but this isn't what I want.

 

This morning I disconected the base station from the D7000 to have another go at installing them straight off the nighthawk after I deleted from base station but no joy.

 

The LED is a constantly blue flashing (not rapid)

 

 

Any suggestions.

 

Thank you

Bubs

That's due to the Q cameras essentially having the "base station" built-in.  It only requires a WiFi connection.  The wireless cameras require a base or the R7000 router which has a selection in the setup to enable Arlo capability.  You need one or the other.

As far as I know it only works with the R7000 not the D7000. I have the R7000 and it was very straight forward and works great.
