My motion detection doesn’t always work for long periods of time ?

Tried all the troubleshooting I can even find Ann’s even have disconnected and reconnected camera with no luck with motion detection.

Arlo's motion sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field of view than to movement directly toward or away from the camera. The best area for motion detection is 5 feet to 20 feet (1.5 to 6 meters) from the camera position.
