I’m going to add on several more cameras making it total of 5. 1. Can one base station be good enough or do I need 2 base stations? I guess I want to know if I should by a package two cameras with a base station. 2. Can I have an Arlo Pro base station AND an Arlo Pro 3 base station in the same house on the same WiFi? So many options. Argh.

I have 20 cameras on two pro bases. You can easily do five cameras on one. But you can also mix bases.

@maura thanks. So if I purchase an Arlo Pro 3 system and connect the smart hub to a google WiFi mesh point in the garage, that should work? And then keep my existing Arlo pro base station connected with my main router. If I do this, will the Arlo app show all my cameras (pro and pro 3)? Thank you so much.

@ola582 that should work. Just add base station and cameras in app.

@maura answered but I just wanted to check you know Pro 3 cameras require a monthly fee if you want cloud recording
