Arlo not recording to local storage

First and foremost, I understand that Arlo as a company is trying to push for everyone to buy their subscription service Arlo Secure. I get it. With this in mind, I think there are some fair points to raise to Arlo as they still offer products that support offline, or local recording features. I went through the steps to set up the Arlo Pro Smart Hub for local recording, attaching an external hard drive, port forwarding my router, assigning a static IP to the Smart Hub and using a VPN for remote access. After finishing the process I waited for the 'Arlo Secure' trial that you are basically forced to enable when you buy a new camera to end. I knew things like 'activity zones' would be disabled and 'thumbnails' for recordings and 'motion alert types' would not work with local recordings, but what I did not expect was basic features of the application to simply be disabled for seemingly no other reason but to bother users into buying a subscription to Arlo Secure.

It looks like "Master" was not understanding " Aspirant", but I understand as I have the same problem. Master kept saying this was a cloud issue and that Aspirant's recordings were going to their cloud, but they were not. The issue is the same where I bought the Arlo Pro's a long time ago and been working fine recording to local storage with a hard drive connected to the USB on the base station.

For the last two days, I can not access my recordings on the base from any cameras and doorbell. I am still getting notifications and a snapshot, but no new or past recordings are available. Is this a ploy to make us subscribe? I have had the cameras a long time and have done all the trouble shooting tips to no avail.
