I spent over $1K on our home Arlo system.  Someone cut our outside wires and then we moved the cameras higher in the trees and had installed a tall metal pole for two cameras battery solar screens.  They can now "green and box out" our screen views.  You can see we don't have the friendliest of neighbors.

What do you mean by "green and box out"???

When I view the screens, they are showing green and then sometimes there are square boxes over the screen - like blocking the door image.

This is when livestreaming the cameras?  Are the "boxes" always the same (and static)?  Or do they change?

 

This normally is caused by network loss - usually poor wifi signal quality.  Try bringing one camera indoors, and putting it 6-10 feet away from the smarthub.  Then see if the artifacts disappear (or not).
