Smart Gateway
The Alarm.com Smart Gateway (ADC-SG130)
provides a dedicated Wi-Fi network for Alarm.com

need to update cameras with complicated router
passwords. Simply add to an Alarm.com account,
plug into any wall outlet, connect to the existing
router, and pair with a Wi-Fi camera for instant,
secure Wi-Fi connectivity.
