I have 2 arlo cameras, they are 20ft away from the base station and 20ft from each camera. The further camera connects just fine but the one closest to the base station seems to not connect. I attempted to reset it plenty of times for 2 weeks. When it does connect, it goes offline In 2-3 days. I guess I could switch cameras. Put the one that connects on the other side. Any ideas?

as mentioned...swap cameras to see if it is location or camera ( issue should follow camera if hardware issue )

Try a bit more distance, like 3 ft and more from the router if they are nearby.

Quick press on base button then camera
