" ... Also, if you are mounting the brackets to a concrete block house, you will want to use a Tapcon-style concrete screw because the tiny screws which come with it won't have a chance of anchoring in concrete or cinderblocks. ... Reception: Wireless reception is good, as my camera farthest from the base station still connects wirelessly, even after the signal passes through 2 interior walls and an exterior block wall. ... "
" ... Bought a 4 pack of cameras, was a little concerned about wireless but they work pretty well, one camera has a weak signal but it has 2 buildings,3 walls between it and the base station but records a good quality picture, no glitches. ... "
" ... The camera that is installed the furthest, maybe 70' from the base station still gets a great signal. ... "
" ... Good range too ... "
" ... If it was at a less traffic area, it would probably last even longer. ... "
" ... At home, I use the Linksys Max-Stream AC4000 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Tri-Band Router which is an excellent router. ... "

" ... - 1080P or better image quality ... "
" ... Upgraded from Arlo Pro to the Arlo Pro 2, going from 720p to 1080p HD was worth it, much easier to identify faces, the swap out/install was very easy ... "
" ... Video quality is also good with 1080p resolution. ... I thought about just going with the Arlo Pro, which has 720p resolution but ended up going with the Pro 2 for better video quality and a few other features. ... "

" ... In short, you will need power cords, need to pay monthly service, need to send data over internet to record and to view, need constant recharging, you will not catch most critical frames . ... "
" ... They might work OK if you just need 3 or 4 for home but that will depend on router, cable and service provider so keep that in mind. ... "
" ... I had a camera that had a bad USB port. ... "
" ... I have purchased new USB cords and tried many scenarios and only Batt in works. ... "
" ... So far I've had several disconnects from the hub. ... "
" ... Unfortunately Zones require external power -- so not only would I need to buy 'outdoor' power supplies, extra long USB cords and probably some 120v extension cords, I'd have to wire it all up. ... "
" ... To access the special features You have to have them plugged into an outlet anyways. ... "
" ... However, those knobs all large enough to cover the power adapter port which is placed right next to the mounting hole. ... So, there is no way to use BOTH the power adapter port AND the screw mount at the same time. ... It should have been designed with more space between the mounting hole and the power adapter port. ...
