Worrying wool: NETGEAR Netgear Arlo HD Security Camera Kit

Why did you say that it was the wool that had to be smashed? Let’s take a look at the price of this item on the Internet . Let’s look at the price and configuration first.


First, the origin of wool

It is estimated that the valued friends you have seen connected have a general understanding of this product. You also saw this kind of news on the public micro-signals of the NETGEAR software a few days ago.

Not 2999, not 1999, as long as 999! You can experience the high-end arlo security camera with eight hearts, arrows, and arrows. You can also get new orbi routers that haven't been listed on the net yet. It's a double-edged sword. How can such a free wool be let go? Pick it up! The activity requirement is very simple. You must apply for home installation equipment between September 18 and September 30. However, activities are limited to the harsh conditions of the northern, upper, broader, and deeper areas. It is not confined to these four cities that also require that the same users within the same district apply for installation and must not exceed two households and integrate all of the above total number of 1,000 households. In a remote third-tier city, I can only bravely use the advantages of a distant relative like a thigh! After making an appointment, wait for the official return call and confirm that the installation is made.

Second, pseudo out of the box

Fortunately, fortunately, the relatives of the distant relatives have no one to install. They have actually made an appointment to one. The official after-sales staff personally went to the door of my distant relative to submit the address to the site for installation and commissioning (in fact, this device can be set to a fool-proof type, However, the activity requirement must be on-site installation. It is estimated that it is to prevent me who has thighs to invert the equipment . ) After confirming the installation, it will collect the equipment cost 999 in person, and it will be OK for the province of 2000. Don't ask me if it is worth buying. The equipment was sent back to me from my relatives in the far-away room and it was possible to put it back in the box even if my family's relatives were very ok to me..... There was no box-to-be photo for the Super Meitu. It was mainly realistic and not too demanding. To my hand is the following figure like this do not ask me why this is the case, can be put back in this box on the line request not too high, after all, not north, up, wide, deep despise regional dog ~

The front of the box is the protagonist of this introduction.

The small logo also emphasizes the advantages of his security camera and the real 100% wireless

The side of the box is also the main product feature information, without the need for computers to simply use Apple, Android devices to view video information, as well as Amazon's cloud service storage function (I think this is more useful, if you are a security camera, do not worry about bad guys to destroy the device and Loss of important criminal evidence)

The back of the box is some of the main uses, home security, remote look bb and other functions

The family portraits that brought out all the accessories and the main body are the following, including two high-definition wireless cameras, eight batteries (already installed in the machine), four metal connectors, wireless transceivers, manuals, etc.

The camera is really wireless, there is no interface, the whole body is black on the front, don't look small, the sensor is fully equipped with infrared sensors, night vision function

The cr123a battery is used. When the machine is purchased, the camera will be equipped with a battery by default. The promotion service life is 6 months. However, I don't think that all the use evaluations seem to reach this time. Look through my daily life. How long can you use it?

The fixing bracket of the camera is very cleverly designed. The bottom of the camera body has a strong magnetic effect . If you do not use the official bracket, it can be absorbed on any metal surface, so you can use or not use the official fixing bracket. The biggest advantage of this bracket is that the angle is adjustable. The angle of the metal surface that the camera directly absorbs in other home environments is not adjustable. The workmanship of the bracket is very detailed, the metal surface is a matte effect, and the plastic part underneath is a hard plastic material.

Behind the use of expansion screws fixed way, of course, save 3m glue directly fixed is ok

The main connection device of the camera is the wireless transceiver of the netware. In essence, the wireless router is a simplified function, and the appearance also maintains the design of the router of the net-ware family style.

The main indicators of the front panel are the following ones. In addition, there are no light tips on the front panel. The front is from the left and the first three lights are all green.

The back of the interface is also very simple, a LAN port, two USB ports (for the time being no use, no local video function) , a power port, a switch

Along with the equipment specification, the main products of the NETGEAR are introduced in detail, and the main scope of use and functions of the arlo equipment are also introduced.

Third, the app experience

Leave a lan socket in the router of your own home to the base station. After connecting, press the sync button on the wireless camera and the sync button on the base station to complete the connection and installation of the device. Here's a demonstration of how to use the app (using Apple as an example) Search arlo from the app store will get the following app Chinese name is love Luo

Login account password, the device will automatically associate touch id to improve the software's security level

The main interface is like this, the wireless camera will prompt according to the connection status whether there is a firmware update, according to the required prompt to update

Through the camera's infrared sensing function, the camera will automatically record dynamic images to the Amazon cloud server, the basic version is free, but the validity period is only saved for 7 days, through the media library can look up the history of 7 days record every day, this record is not to say 24-hour non-stop recording is the default recording time when there is a moving object. For example, if 10 seconds is set, 10 seconds of content will be recorded when the object moves, and will be recorded in the content of the day.

The base station has set up several common configurations

Mainly refers to open the infrared sensor, turn off the infrared sensor, according to the time plan to start, and the location of several modes of use, generally for the long-term use of energy-saving easy to close the infrared sensor mode, the function is an instant viewing camera. This geofence function I really do not understand Is it true that foreign countries have been out of the cable is free network all over the world? Is the security of the base station on the car real-time monitoring of the vehicle ah?

You can upgrade the device, change the name, and so on. All of the settings are centralized here.

Fourth, summary

advantage:

1, without any cable, easy to install fool, if the security as a high security camera, as long as the base station coverage, complete wireless work.

2, the dynamic sensitivity is very high, my main purpose is to use to see children, the child basically has a stand up at night, crying, there will be a direct mail push can view dynamic clips for the first time to see if it is the diaper or the nursing Now.

3, there is a stable Amazon cloud service, do not worry as security camera equipment is destroyed and lost security records, multi-device login view anywhere.

4. The fixing method is various and convenient. It can be directly adsorbed on metal articles such as radiators, pipes, metal door frames, etc. without using the base, or the official adjustment base can be used for multi-angle debugging and fixing.

Disadvantages:

1, if there is no north, up, wide, deep, such as distant relatives of the thigh, if you can not reach the wool, the price alone is too high, to 2999

2, the wireless camera's battery life is a problem worthy of testing, the key to this camera equipment manual prohibits the use of rechargeable cr123a battery, it is estimated that the camera is also worried about the bottom of the magnetic and battery damage to the camera hardware equipment

3, although there are usb port but does not provide video recording stored locally

4. The free storage time of Amazon Cloud Service is too short, only 7 days. If you want to save a longer time, you have to pay extra.

Finally, this wireless security camera with NETGEAR is still very useful, with several major advantages that can not be ignored: wireless, cloud storage, high sensitivity. However, the high selling price also makes this device not cost-effective. Fortunately, my dog ​​is doing well. I've got the flanks of distant relatives and picked up the wool. This device is still very good value for myself.

Finally, thanks for watching~
