Does the Arlo wired video doorbell require a smarthub

[Edwinhein]

If it need a smarthub, which model will work. VMB4540-100N only lists the wire free doorbell as compatible. Or does it connect direct to Wifi?

Where are you seeing this?  The wire free doorbell (AVD2001) can not be paired with any base.

The AVD1001 can be paired to your home wifi, or it can be paired with several bases (including both smarthubs).  More details are here: https://kb.arlo.com/000062284/What-is-the-difference-between-each-Arlo-SmartHub-and-base-station

Note that the "Video Doorbell" in the above link refers to the AVD1001 (wired video doorbell), not the AVD2001.  Hopefully Arlo (hint to @JamesC ) will revise that article to make that more clear.
