Hi, I use Arlo wireless, I have 5 cameras
but I have problems with 2 of these,
one consume the batteries very quickly
and the other although I put new batteries,
the yellow battery light is flashing low.
Even on the PC.
the icon of battery state tells me that the battery is low. How to remedy it? thank you

Chances are your new batteries are low. Have you got a multimeter to check their output voltage? Are the batteries all in with the correct polarity and with good contacts?

maybe a dirty contact.

Put the low batteries in one of the good cams.  What does that tell you about the batteries then?
