How did you alter the bandwidths? I am now having trouble accessing my account online and both Netgear and Arlo tech supports were useless to help. Netgear said it was Arlo's problem and all Arlo did was have me reset the password to access my camera account. Anyone know anything at all in these corporations???

You will need to login to the main base station. If that’s an orbi, you go to orbilogin.com and it will take you to the web admin. You go to advanced settings and find the section where you can adjust radio power settings.
Don’t know anything about Arlo.

I have an Arris router as my internet server through Spectrum fka Time Warner Cable.
I also purchased from Netgear three Orbi satellites: 2 are ORBI mini RBS40 and one an ORBI RBS50-100NAS.
I purchased a security system from Netgear called Arlo. The package came with 6 cameras and a base station. Several months ago, Arlo spun off from Netgear and became an independent company.
When I bought the Arlo cameras in 10/2016, they were not connecting to my Arris router. I have a 2600 sqft house so it was recommended to add the Orbi satellites in 1/2018 to expand the wifi coverage in the house.
The netgear arlo base station is directly connected to the Orbi satellite. Now, the netgear arlo base station is not connecting to the four wireless cameras.
I am confused why it was working before although signal did drop off several other times. I question the placement and direct connection of the base station to the Orbi.
