Hi! We bought a set of Arlo-NETGEAR VMC3230 wireless cameras about 10 years ago, recently I took them out of the box and began to begin setup, only to find that they aren't being detected both by the MyArlo website and the Arlo app. Can someone please help? Every time I've tried to get the base station to be detecected, it just searches for about 5 minutes and says "No Devices found." 
I know that they have reached their EOL service date, but I would still very much like to use them. Thanks!

It's been said that very old firmware isn't compatible these days so onboarding fails. Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about it. Purchasing a new SmartHub would allow the hub to be onboarded but the cameras may well have the same issue as the base.
