Hi

Having a couple of ultra 2 cameras I am dependent on a hub. Which of course does a bad coverage of all of my cameras. I have to prioritise coverage and looses speed and quite often connectivity. I am so tired of these expensive cameras are so slow. 

Those of you with two (or more?) hubs. Are they responding quicker? My hope is the response time from when I open the app until I get a live view. 

 

if it gets better I’ll by one more hub.

No, it doesn't.

 

You can try connecting your cameras to the electrics as this improves the response time.

 

Other than that, indeed, Arlo products are expensive but it's the user's choice whether to use them.

It's unlikely that the app connection time will improve.

 

But if you are getting artifacts in your recordings or dropped connections, then it is possible that the cameras are too far from the smarthub.  In that situation,  a second smarthub could help.  You would need to put it somehere closer to some cameras (and possibly reposition the current smarthub).
