Question 1

My Apple Airport Extreme currently has an unused ethernet port.  Is this where the Arlo base station is plugged?  Thanks.

Accepted Answer

There are 4 ethernet ports on the back of an Airport Extreme. The left most one (closest to the power connector) is a WAN port and can not be used. The other three are fair game and is where the Arlo base station should be plugged into.

Question 2

Can you mix and match the cameras between the Smart Home system and the Pro Security system?  Would it be better to have the Smart Home system first then add a Pro camera or the other way around?

Accepted Answer

You can mix and match the cameras.  Or just mix. If you want the home alarm, best to start with a Pro system. If you don't care about that, the home system is cheaper. I started with home and later bought Pro and sold the base - continuing to use the Smart Home cameras.
