Reset the Arlo Base Station to Factory Settings
Performing a factory reset returns your base station values to the default
settings. It also removes the serial number from your Arlo account.
¾ To perform a factory reset on your base station:
1. Use a straightened paper clip to press and hold the Reset button on the back
of the base station for about 10 seconds.
When the base station reset completes, the LEDs on the front of the base
station blink amber. When the LEDs stop blinking amber, your base station
reboots. The base station is removed from your Arlo account.
2. When the Power and Internet LEDs both light solid green, tap the Arlo icon on
your mobile device and log in to your Arlo account.
If you are using a computer, enter https://my.arlo.com/#/login in the address bar

3. Tap or click New to Arlo?.
4. Follow the setup instructions.
If your Arlo cameras were synced to the base station, you might need to sync the
cameras to the base station again. For more information, see Sync Your Cameras
With the Base Station on page 11.
