Subscription plan sucks. Can only watch live stream no recorded events or anything without a sub. Avoid Arlo go Eufy or tabo

If you have a Home Base unit from an older Arlo setup, it'll work without subscription but their auto routine/scheduling system is very complicated. I have an older setup from 2015 that still works so I picked this up to continue my Arlo setup.
