Nighthawk M1 doesn't see Arlo Cam

Question

Hi guys,&nbsp;I recently need my Nighthawk connected with 2 Arlo HD cams (not a pro, just a "cheap" probably older Arlo HD)&nbsp;I was able to enable arlo at the Netgear and it should also been connected to the Arlo as it fills he SD card with videos, so however I can't manage to setup the Arlo App. I of course wants to have a live feed and setup motion detection, and play the videos.&nbsp;I registered and have to then add the M1 + the cam(s) right?When I add both it runs forever and fails.&nbsp;Also I can add a base and it is searching, but I cannot choose M1 or something like i found in various 2018 videos.Since the Arlo would be second, it doesn't find it as well-&nbsp;Can anyone give some hints?Firmware from the M1 is the latest 2020&nbsp;

You don't add the arlo cameras to the M1. You add it to the arlo base station. You'd want to contact arlo support for assistance connecting the cameras tothe base station.

yea, but with the Arlo app, and this doesn't see the M1 as base nor the cam

it won't see the M1 as base. You actually need an arlo base with many of their models.&nbsp;

I believe that was right before/at the time of the arlo/netgear separation. Arlo is now its own company/entity.&nbsp;There was work at including arlo into the orbi router but it got dropped during the separation.&nbsp;
