Arlo App Login issue

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 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.

On Spectrum WiFi I get error messages and can’t access the app or online site via iOS or computer. On cellular it’s fine. Additionally, when the App does work, one of my cameras on a Pro base station says “this arlo device is offline” via App even though it records and I can see it on a computer - Cameras on a regular base station are fine.

I'm able to login to Arlo on my Andoid Samsung phone on my Sprint cell phone. I'm not able to login into the same account using the same phone or Samsung tablet using a Wi-Fi connection thru my frontier account. Both attempts are from my home near Redding CA. The Wi-Fi account works fine with all devices and logins except Arlo.

Iphone X, Macbook Pro- MacOS Sierra, Google Fiber as internet provider (Central Texas), AT&T for cellular. Tried arlo.netgear website on both laptop and phone (using cellular and wifi), tried updating app, tried typing in password, tried logging in with Face ID, tried resetting base station and router. Still getting "internet connectivity issues" or "cannot connect to server". No problems accessing any other websites or apps.

After reading some of the replies, I noticed I'm in the same boat. My Android app appears not to work when connected to the Spectrum wifi but works fine when I disconnect wifi from phone and use my Verizon data.

Deleted app and re-loaded it and it logged on. But it does not show library or let you go live on cameras. This is on spectrum WiFi.

5/28/18 1:54 pm Pacific - I am unable to login to my ARLO Home security system.  I know that the cameras are working because I continue to receive notifications, but I am unable to access my account to check on who has entered my cameras' field of vision. I have no control at all. Everything was working well until last night (5/27/18). 

I have the ARLO VMB4000 base station.
