Thanks James - system was working fine.... then all off a sudden it would power off into amber stand by mode.... reported and Arlo agreed to raise an rma and swap box.... well after waiting a month for the second email nothing came.... online chat was not reachable also the email support form would appear blank - so I thought I would just purchase a new base unit.... plug in and same issue.... stuck on amber light -

Tried factory reset etc so I was thinking could this be my issue ? Maybe firewall blocking connection ? Maybe AV software ?? Do we need to open a tunnel on the router ??

Any ideas appreciated

What is the "amber standby mode"? Which LED(s) went amber?

 

The RMA issue is something you have to pursue with support. @JamesC may be able to check into it to help.

The first light as you look at the box...... you can see all
Lights blink green after reset but they goes back to amber

If th epower LED is anything but green there's a problem. Could be the base or the power supply. You'll need to contact support to get either one replaced. Stay on them - every day, if necessary.
