Arlo Ethernet Cable Assistance

[dobebmo1]

I need to do some reconfiguration with my modem and router hence asking this question.

What happens if the Ethernet cable is unplugged from Arlo, will it need to be reconfigured?

Obviously my setup is wrong right now, I have the Arlo hooked up to our Router’s Ethernet and I need to plug the Arlo Ethernet into our port switch instead.

No.  You can just power down the hub, reconnect it, and then power up again.

If it is hooked up to a LAN port on the router, then it is not wrong - that should work just fine.

That said, connecting it to your ethernet switch should also work fine.
