Troubleshooting Arlo Pro 4XL Setup Issues

Here are some tips on how to troubleshoot Arlo Pro 4XL camera setup issues:

Make sure you are using a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. The Arlo Pro 4XL camera can only connect to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network, not a 5 GHz network.
Ensure that your phone or mobile device is connected to the same 2.4 GHz network that you are trying to connect your camera to.
Make sure you type the correct Wi-Fi network SSID (network name) and password. The network SSID and password are case-sensitive and must be EXACTLY correct.
Ensure your mobile device and Arlo camera are within the Wi-Fi signal range of your Wi-Fi router.
Make sure the camera LED is blinking blue while the camera is being discovered.
Make sure you hear the chime noise when your camera scans the QR code.
Verify that you are within range of your mobile network.
You can factory reset your camera. To do this, press and hold the sync button on the back of the camera for 10 seconds. The LED will flash red and then green when the reset is complete.
