How do I install a SIM card in my Arlo Go 2 Camera?
Your Arlo Go 2 camera requires an activated SIM card with a mobile data plan to access the mobile network.
For help with your Go 2 mobile service plan, contact the carrier of the SIM card that was provided. If no SIM card was included, visit your local carrier to activate a service plan and receive a SIM card.
To insert a SIM card into your Arlo Go 2 Camera:
1. Bring the Arlo Go 2 Camera indoors, if needed.
2. Press the button on the magnetic charging port to release the camera from its housing.
3. With a click sound, the camera slides partially out of the housing.
