Hello everyone,

 

I have installed 1 camera kit Arlo Ultra since 2020. From the first time, I pay CVR 24/7 plan for this kit. Everything works perfectly until next week when my plan stops working. I remove the camera, smart hub, cancel the subscription, reset everything, pay again for the subscription but my CVR not working. When I disconnect the AC/DC from the camera I can stream live. Anyway, this CVR is not working without plug in your camera to the power. Contact the Arlo support open few cases regarding this without any result. Now I ask the community if someone else has this issue in 2021. Very frustrating.  Very expensive kit and subscription as well. Please for all Arlo Moderator if is possible to have a look at my case number: #42546320.

Thank you for reading this and I hope someone will help with this.

Not sure what your other issues are but CVR will not work at all without AC power.

What is continuous video recording (CVR) and how do I use it? (arlo.com)

It's been a while since I tried out CVR.  But my recollection is that you'd continue to get motion notifications.

@Scully20  Just note you can not download from the CVR timeline so if you want Motion Recordings you need to keep the smart subscription also for cloud storage.
