First off, I want to apologize for asking the same question that has been asked a thousand times. I also should say that I am NOT a computer person. I just updated my internet to Starlink from Frontier. I have had five pro 2 cameras (and just recently 2 spotlight cameras) for about two years. The only issues I had with the set-up was the horrible internet I had before. After getting Starlink up and running and connecting the pro 2 base with the Starlink ethernet adapter, everything worked great for about 2 days. I ended up doing a factory reset and hooking the base up to a router/wifi extender. It worked great for a day or so and disconnected. I tried another factory reset.....hooked the base directly to the Starlink Ethernet adapter and again...it worked for a day or so. The reset doesn't do crap. I now have the Starlink connected to the router/wifi extender via ethernet cable. The Base is connected to the router/wifi extender via ethernet cable. It works for a while after doing a wifi reboot through the Starlink app. I tried to bypass the Starlink router and use my router in place and dang near couldn't get my Starlink back. If anyone has a solution that can be dumbed down I would greatly appreciate the help. I have tried the Arlo customer support chat robots and I get told to factory reset my base..... I love my set-up and quality of my cameras and pictures. with so many posts about the same problem, I don't understand how Arlo doesn't have an answer.

I am interested in a solution to this as well. Everything was working fine with Starlink and Arlo until 4/1, and now I can't get the base station to reconnect; LED keeps blinking amber color, even after factory resets and reboots.

Is there any way that I can bypass the level 1 chat folks so I can actually get some help?
