Had Arlo for about 3 months. The set-up is the same since i installed it. Now I am getting "request timed out".  Went through the steps to re-boot several times.  Camera is appox.40 ft. away and is same position as it was when set up. Batteries were changed approx. 2 weeks ago & all was well.  Now this ..... help?

I've had this issue and you can click on my name and see what I think is the problem and how I went about curing it. Even though I still have issues every now and then, I'm at 98% reliability.

 

It's all about the 2.4ghz wireless connection between the base and cameras. The base is nothing more than an antenna and even though you have four bars on the radar icon, that is not an idicator at all as to your communication between the base and camera. Move your base around (different angles and positions) and you'll probably see your problem camera, just leap on line.
