Hey

 

Is there a possibility to change the wifi channel?
I want to give it a fixed channel because it takes sometimes the same channel as my own wifi channel and this leads to no internet connection.

 

Many thanks already

Also, if you want a channel for Arlo thats far from your router there's another way.

1) set your router to the wanted channel

2) reset Arlo base with it near the router ( it will pick the same channel to avoid interference )

3) reset  your router back to the original channel

 

( as you should be able to access/change yr router channel but no access into the Arlo base )

The only way to change channels on the base station is to move it further from the router.  20 feet is often suggested as a good distance.
