Went to turn on my Arlo cameras and they wouldn't appear on app. I turned base off then back on and half my cameras said off line. I tried again and a couple of more came back on. I noticed the battery had suddenly drained on my cameras for no reason. Hopefully this is just a clitch and will fix itself later.VM

If for some reason your base station went down, the cameras use a huge amount of energy trying to find it again.

Hopefully all is good again but you might need to change your batteries soon. And hopefully you're using rechargeable batteries as they'll save you a ton in the long run

That must have been it. Woke up this morning and all cameras are working minus the full power they had. One has yellow indicator. And three are showing half battery. Thanks for you help.
