Basestation VMB3010r2 lights blinking green and amber

[Lightfoto]

Hi there. Since this morning my Arlo Basestation Firmware firmware 1.9.0.0_14639 has blinking lights. The internet light blinks steady green and sometimes flickering green. The camera light is blinking amber all the time. The system works fine. I have 3 Arlo H7 Firmware 1.2.11810 connected and 1 Arlo Q VMC3040r6 with Firmware 1.8.3.1_13001. I restarted the basestation but that doesn't help. The blinking is annoying like something is supposed to bring, especially the Amber light. Anyone with the same problem? Any suggestions? Thanks to advise. //Erwin

For me it is still the same., still blinking. How about you in Italy?

Consider a system reset by removing all devices in Settings, My Devices.  Use the Add Device button to add the base and sync the cameras.  Verify that you have the latest firmware.

I noticed last night that light on the Arlo Q was lit though the camera was off. I cut the electricity on this camera. The Arlo router was back to normal, only difference was that the internet light was blinking green sometimes but no amber. I connected the Arlo Q this morning and sofar so good. No more amber lights. Internet light is still blinking green though but I assume that's normal.

The Internet LED blinking is new behavior from a firmware update which indicates Internet access similar to how your router may do the same thing.
