COMPLETE: Planned Community System Maintenance August 29th - Posts/Replies Will be Disabled

Update: 8/29/2018 - 6:30AM PST

Matienence is complete for the NETGEAR Community Forums.

Please note that visiting an Arlo link will redirect you the Arlo Community Forum.

 

Update: 8/30/2018 - Arlo and NETGEAR communities are separated, you will need to log in separately. Learn More>

 

Heads up Arlo and NETGEAR family! In order to roll-out some maintenance upgrades, the NETGEAR and Arlo communities will be temporarily unavailable during the early morning of August 29th. During the first several hours of the maintenance upgrade, the site may be unavailable. After that time, the site will be in read-only mode for a period of several days. You will still be able to search and browse posts and content to find answers, however, the ability to perform actions such as post, reply, private message, or give kudos will be disabled. This will only affect the community sites, and not your Arlo or NETGEAR device functionality. For support during this time, please see our More Resources section below.

Why not do the work during the least forum used days and hours like on weekends and at night times?

hi

is it offline already?  for me nothing works online, no login, no app, no nothing. at least the base station is still saving on the USB.

also Flash is a major issue, all browsers refuse it now.. time to change.

Arlo Pros stopped alerting today although you can see when  vehicles are no longer there or something moved as revealed on your OIS device.  Did a walk around in the areas of four cameras and no notification,not a good thing for security.checked base station, every thing green, working. Notifications checked, on in settings.

Is that a part of of maintenance ?

The system just allowed me to submit a new discussion, and I got a badge for 1st post, but I don't see the new topic. It should have gone into the VPN Firewalls section of the forum.

Does this mean the post is gone? Or will it appear later sometime?

thanks, graham

Why am I not able to post in the VPN Firewall forum? I've tried twice and they appear in my subscriptions and I can view them from there, but I cannot reply to them and they are not showing on the forum listing page.

Hopefully one of the things that will be fixed is to actually honor the "Keep me signed in" to the community check box. This has not worked for a long time and it's tiresome to have to log in every time I access the community.

We sign you out automatically out of the community after a period of inactivity. This isn’t a bug but a deliberate choice we made.

Re: Planned Community System Maintenance Late August - Posts/Replies Will be Disabled

Kind of defeats the purpose of have a "Keep me signed in" check box. Maybe you should remove the check box if you're just going to ignore it or ad a disclaimer that says "We ignore this box if checked".
