Arlo with basestation KILLING my wifi download speed

[therjp]

Installed this a few months ago and ever since my wifi download speeds have been terrible, to the point where I have to disconnect the arlo basestation to enjoy decent speeds.  On Xfinity blast so plenty of speed coming in to my Apple Aiport Extreme and 3 wireless extenders (airpot express).  I've tried moving the basestation away from the wifi router and that hasn't helped at all.  I've tried resetting the basestation, modem, router, extenders, etc.

It's pretty simple, once the arlo connects to my network, wifi drops from 60-70 mbps to 6-12 mbps.

Help.

Arlo uses 2.4GHz. I put my devices that can use it on the 5GHz band. No speed issues. If you can get most of your stuff on to 5GHz, you should have no speed drop

You may also want to see if your router has QOS and if it does, try using it to see if that helps manage traffic any better.
