I have had the system for 3 days and it has worked ok.  Today, however, the video will not upload.  I have not changed any settings and have reset the router.  The still shot for the camera on the main page is working but no video.  Thanks in advance for any advice.  After playing with it for a while it seeems as though there is almost an hour delay on uploading.  Netgear server problem?

As some of you may have already witnessed we are experiencing intermittent performance issues with live streaming and accessing the library. Our Engineers are working on it and will provide and update once resolved. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Does this mean the videos are lost?

They seem to slowly trickle in.  I don't know if it is all of them though.

A fix was implemented that should resolve the intermittent issues with accessing the library and live streaming. We will continue to monitor the system closely. Please let us know if you continue to experience these issues!

I got my system today. Everything seems to be working OK except uploaded recordings. They take 2 hours to arrive. My upload speed is 2.18 Mbps. Will this be fixed?

It has to be fixed or Arlo will lose all business.

Yeah, I'm still trying to decided whether or not to keep this. I love the design, portability, and the video quality but one of its main functions is not working properly. I'll give it a couple days before deciding I guess.

Just received 2 videos from 7:30pm. It's 8: 56pm. Both videos were 6 mins long. That setting doesn't even exist in the GUI. Netgear can you explain this.

As you may have noticed, we are experiencing issues with our cloud servers which may be slowing down reception of alerts and video recordings. Our engineers are working on the situation with urgency and things should be back to normal shortly. In the meantime, we apologize for any downtime you’re experiencing and want to let you know that we are working non-stop to address the issue.

 

Update:

A fix for this issue has been released and has significantly improved Arlo performance. However, a side effect you may currently experience is the alert counter on the camera screen disabled and set to 0. Resolving this counter issue and further optimizing Arlo performance is our number one priority at this time and Arlo engineers are working non-stop to resolve this. 

 

Please refer any additional comments on this issue to the following thread: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Motion-Detection/Email-Alerts-Video-Recordings-Not-Getting-or-Getti...

Need more details. Does live view work? How about manually recording? Motion detection working? Is the running man gray or black?

Jpmc,

 

Are you seeing any error messaging? What is the behavior of the LED's on your base station? Were you using a schedule?
