Would getting a base station reduce the doorbell delay

[cobiesmul47]

I have a wired video doorbell, whihc does a good job of notifying me when there is movement near my front door. I don't really have much problems with it compared to what I have read on this sub.

My only complaint is the lag (about 3-4 seconds) between what is happening in front of the doorbell, and what I see in the app: it is almost impossible to have a normal conversation because of that delay. I have 500 mbs down/up fiber, and the doorbell is about 20 feet away from my Unifi AP (which shows wifi quality of 99% for the doorbell). With my phone, I get 150 mbs up/down speed right beside the doorbell.

Would getting a base station reduce the lag, as the video would (maybe?) run locally instead of going through Arlo's crappy servers?

cobiesmul47,

A slight delay is normal behavior. Is your doorbell showing maximum signal strength in the mobile app? How far away is it from your router? You may be able to improve the delay some by making sure the signal is as strong as it can be.
