Transcript
We've put a lot of work in the setting of this vegetable garden at the scene at Smart Home.
But we are also really worried about pests eating our spills so one of the things we're gonna do is actually monitor the space with a security camera, specifically the Negro Arlo Go.
The Arlo Go is $400 HD outdoor LTE Camera this one works with with AT&T via an included SIM card but Nightgear also sells a Verizon version as well as one that connect to Arlo's own mobile service.
The Go is powered by a recharable battery but you can also connect it to the included adapter for a 24 7 continuous connection.

Now, gear makes this really easy through the Arlo app's step by step tutorial.
It will tell you to press the sync button on the camera, scan the QR code on the screen, name your camera, we naturally went with garden, and select a mobile plan, starting at $5 per month.
The beauty of having a cellular network to connect this camera is that you don't have to worry about Wi-Fi or Or any related outages.
