Which base is it? Look at the bottom for a label that shows VMBxxxx. Is the base active in your account and has the latest firmware? Your mesh network has nothing to do with connecting to a base. The base connects to your router (or a satellite) via the Ethernet cable and provides its own separate WiFi network for the cameras.
