If you already reset the camera by opening the battery door ( 3 sec ) and closing AND camera still goes back to pink/red only then contact Netgear re a possible replacement

Same problem here. This camera is in my vacation home 1000 miles away. I can't fly there to simply open and close a camera. Please get it together Netgear!!! Find a solution fast before customers start returning your junk in droves!

wow. Arlo needs to come up with a better system. If you speak to a customer service agent on the phone. You will hear all of the excuses in the world. A complete waste of money, time and energy

I had this on one of my outside cameras yesterday!

A 3 sec reset got rid of it but I really hope this is something fixable with a firmware update. The wireless convenience of these thing will be overshadowed if I have to keep periodically resetting.

 

Bought the system 2 weeks ago

we installed the until about six days ago.  Today one of the cameras is producing pink video. What happened and how do I correct it.  Looking on line it looks like others have had this issue.  Several responses say the individual will be contacted personally.  That does not help me.  Please advise.  One person said they reset their camera - how do I do that?

Take out your batteries on this camera for several seconds and then put your batteries back in the camera. Hopefully this will help. Arlo needs accountabilty. The level 2 people at the company does nothing

The PMs are apparently just a note to submit a trouble ticket which you can do yourself.
