Wanted to love so bad but couldnt
As a longtime user of both the original Arlo and Arlo Pro, I was excited to upgrade to the Arlo Pro 3.
After setting up everything, the range on the Arlo Pro 3 is nowhere near as good as the original Arlo or Arlo pro.
My furthest camera is my front door, it is about 100 ft away from the base. The original Arlo and Arlo pro had no problem with this. The Arlo Pro 3 would sometimes connect to the front door, most of the time it would not. So I did a side by side comparison with both systems setup. In every case the Arlo pro beat out the Arlo Pro 3 in terms of operational quality. In addition, the Arlo Pro 3 uses completely new rechargeable batteries that cannot be charged in the Arlo pro charger. A BIG minus in my mind if you want to upgrade a piece of of system a little at a time.
If you have a Arlo pro system, stick with it! Don't bother with this!
