Update: 5/28/18 @ 8:52PM Pacific

 

We have identified a DNS issue with certain Internet Service Providers that is causing connection to the Arlo app to fail. We are continuing to monitor the situation, and in the meantime we have identified a temporary workaround.

 

  • Use a mobile device to connect to the Arlo app with Wi-Fi turned off (use cellular data/LTE). Please note that this option will use data from your cellular plan.

 

Some users have reported success logging into their Arlo app by updating their DNS settings to a public DNS server. For assistance with changing your DNS settings, it is recommended to contact your ISP.

As part of our ongoing investigation and with the help of our Community and Social users, we’ve uncovered that the Arlo app login issue is only affecting some customers on some service providers.

 

If you are seeing the message “We're sorry, Arlo is currently unavailable. Please try again later” and are willing to help us troubleshoot by providing us with your service provider (wifi or cellular carrier) and device type (iOS, android, web app). Please reply to this thread.

_________________________________________________

Update: 5/28/18 2:07AM Pacific 

We are looking into reports that some users are still seeing the error "We're sorry, Arlo is currently unavailable.  Please try again later" or "cannot log in due to internet connectivity issues". This does not affect library recordings or any previously set modes and rules. We are continuing to investigate this issue, and will keep you updated here on this thread. 

_____________________________________________

 Important Update 5/27/18 @ 11:00PM Pacific:

 

Some users had trouble logging into their Arlo apps earlier today, however, this did not affect library recordings or any previously set modes and rules. All systems are now up and running as expected. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this has caused."

We wanted to provide you with an update on the current login issue some users are experiencing where you may be unable to login to your Arlo apps, or are seeing the message “We're sorry, Arlo is currently unavailable.  Please try again later". We are still actively investigating this issue and are working towards a resolution. Thank you for your continued patience. We will continue to update this thread as we have more information.

My Arlo Pro just started having an issue yesterday, May 27. Using the iPhone App on my WiFi gives me an error saying “Sorry; we are having trouble signing you in because of internet connectivity issues. Do you want to try again?"

 

Nothing on on my end has changed. I have tried rebooting both my router/modem and the Arlo unit itself. No luck. The only thing that does work is if I turn of my WiFi on my phone and use LTE.

 

Is anyone else experiencing this same issue and more importantly has anyone figured out a solution to this issue?  

 

Thanks

Hello all,

 

Thank you for taking the time to provide the details requested. We are still actively working on it around the clock. It looks like from what you guys have been sharing with us here and on social media, people still being affected are mostly from Spectrum/Comcast/Time Warner, which are all in the same family of Internet service providers. It also looks like for some people, switching from WiFi to cellular data allows them to login? For anyone willing to test this, can you confirm your results here in this thread?

 

We will have another update for you guys by or before 7pm Pacific tonight. 

 

Thank you so much for taking the time out to provide these details to us, it is helping!

I am still unable to log into the Arlo app on my phone, iPad or iMac.  I have the original Arlo cameras and Arlo Q.  I am connected to internet with Verizon (Frontier) on my iMac and Verizon wireless on my iphone and iPad. I hope this can be resolved soon. 

 

Thank you
