need ethernet connection to set up
on March 21, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this router (my 3rd one) by recommendation from the clerk, it has a reach of 5,000 sq ft. My house is3800 sq ft. so I thought it would work fine. I had problems at first getting a signal upstairs, then the day the geek squad guy came out, I moved the plug from the surge protector to the wall, and the signal came in fine, while he was there. One week later, I started having problems upstairs again, so I adjusted the antena, and seems to help, signal is fine again. Saved me allot of money not having to buy the mega router plus 2 power boosters that are compatible with that company's router, so if you live in an old house that is big and who knows what might be interfering, I think it works well for the money. For a new person to the wireless internet it was a little difficult to set up, I needed to be guided on the phone. Customer service was very good (and patient). The set up had to be re-done with a hardwire (ethernet) connection a second time because of some reason I didn't understand. It works fine now, so I shouldn't complain, but wouldn't be my first choice next time for problem spots. It really depends on your situation. Most homes it would be great. This was my 3rd one, and it is working great now.

With CMOS image sensors and IR LEDs, these weatherproof NETGEAR Arlo Smart Home VMS3230-100NAS wireless cameras let you record security footage in 720p resolution, both during the day and at night. Motion activation helps ensure efficient monitoring.
 

How do I shut the system down when I am not using it ?

Hello, I recently purchased the wireless Arlo system. So when I'm finished using my camera system, I'd like to shut it down. So if I turn off the button on the base, does that mean the cameras are off as well? I just want to make sure my battery's are not being used at that time. Please correct me if I'm shutting the system down incorrectly.
the only way to save batteries is to open the camera up so they are not activated. I asked the same question to netgear and that was the answer I got

Do wireless cameras like this slow down your internet?

Does using these slow down your internet speed?
not at all that I can tell. I have cable internet w/ router. Its the router size that is the question you need to ask. I can't answer that however, I am on my 3rd router to reach the whole house.
