    Apparently Arlo broke the functionality to allow the owner to speak to the person on the porch. After I installed, I tried to find an answer to the problem. I found a lot of people posting on their support site that it’s broken. There are better options out there.

    Horrible Audio Lag

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have mixed thoughts on this product. The video portion of this product has been outstanding. We have loved being able to see and be notified of people at our door. The audio portion has been horrible. The lag is unacceptable. You can't even have a conversation through the doorbell. We are set up with fiber internet and a newer router. Searching online shows that many others are having this same issue. Lag time for the audio is anywhere from 10-15 seconds and makes having a conversation with anyone impossible.

    The doorbell is just ok. It doesn’t pick up motion like it should and with the Arlo having a poor system and application it makes it that much more difficult to render services.
