Replaced my VMB4000 with a VMB4540

 

Still have Pro2 cameras. All on same WIFI network.

 

Removed all items before setting up all as new. Resynced all. No Activity Zones set.

 

With the new VMB4540 people and vehicles don't always get picked up as quickly as with the VMB4000. Will give it a couple weeks and then explore my options. I doubt that this would raise to an issue with the Hub to get it replaced. 

 

But, my question is--

 

Would the hub have any thing to do with this issue. Or, would it be only the cameras?

 

Thanks

Hi rugmankc1,

 

Changing your Base Station shouldn't have anything to do with motion detection not working properly.

 

You may need to move your cameras closer to your Base Station. Also try to move your Base Station away from your router/modem if it's close to it. You can also read here to learn how to optimize motion detection: How do I optimize motion detection for my Arlo camera?
