Step 1: Find a Good Spot

Choose a place for your Arlo Base Station. Make sure it's in the middle of where you want to put your cameras and close to a power outlet.

Step 2: Unbox and Check

Take your Arlo Base Station out of the box. Look for any damage. Make sure you have all the things listed in the manual.

Step 3: Connect to Power

Plug the power cable into your Arlo Base Station and a power outlet. Make sure it's securely connected.

Step 4: Set Up Wi-Fi or Ethernet

You can connect your Arlo Base Station to the internet in two ways:

Wi-Fi: If you have good Wi-Fi signal where you put your base station, you can connect it wirelessly.

Ethernet: If you have an Ethernet cable, you can connect your base station directly to your router.

Follow the instructions in the manual to connect to the internet. It's important to have a good internet connection for Arlo to work well.

Step 5: Pair Your Cameras

Now it's time to connect your Arlo cameras to the base station. Follow the instructions in the manual to do this. It usually involves pressing a sync button on the camera and the base station.

Step 6: Create Your Arlo Account

If you don't have an Arlo account, you'll need to make one. Go to Arlo's website or use their app to do this. If you already have an account, just log in.

Step 7: Add Your Base Station

After you're logged in, you can add your base station to your Arlo account. This helps you manage your cameras from anywhere.

Step 8: Choose a Storage Plan

Arlo offers different plans for saving your video recordings in the cloud. You can pick the one that suits you best.

Step 9: Customize Your Settings

Now that your base station is connected and your cameras are paired, you can customize settings like when you want your cameras to record, how sensitive they are to motion, and more. These settings make Arlo work just the way you want it to.

Step 10: Test and Enjoy

Before finishing, test your cameras to make sure they're in the right place and that they're recording when they should. With everything set up, you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a well-working Arlo security system.
