Cutting edge protection for what matters most

While typical security camera footage is infamous for its low fidelity, the Arlo Ultra camera and SmartHub deliver high performance 4K HDR that ensures cutting-edge image quality.

Don't usually look over the ultra 2 comments but after looking at them, I'm pretty sure the original ultra does use both 5 and 2.4.  I remember way back when it was activated and both show on a wi-fi analyzer.  It may be used differently with the new hardware, can't really say about that.

I have an existing Arlo Pro 2 setup using a VMB4000r3 hub with 5x cameras, doorbell and chime.  If I purchase an Ultra 2 I have a few questions.

 

1. Can all existing hardware be ported over to use with the new hub coming with the ultra 2?  I would prefer not to run 2x hubs.

2. I have paid for CVR on 3x of the Arlo Pro 2.  Will this port over?

3. Can I move CVR from an existing Arlo Pro 2 to the new Ultra 2?

4.. I have paid for Arlo Smart Premier for all 6 cameras.  Will this port over and can I include a new ultra 2?

 

There were limitations in the past when I bought my Arlo Pro 2 as to how many cameras could be used on a hub etc so was hoping to get some guidance here before I consider purchasing an upgrade.

 

Thanks.

jayhova1,

 

1. Yes.

2. You would need to cancel your current subscription and then subscribe on the new cameras.

3. See 2.

4. Ultra 2 comes with a 3 month trial for Arlo Smart. Once the trial expires, you can select a new subscription, or utilize an existing subscription if you have available camera coverage.

James, can I get some help? Please see my post in the ultra 2 section of this forum. I bought 2 black arlo 2 cameras, had to return 1 and was replaced a white camera. Awaiting the black and recently discovered a black is coming but it is the original arlo ultra (not 2) based upon the code VMC5040B. My box says VMS5240B.
