I moved and set up my base and cameras at my new place, which has a new WiFi network. When I booted everything up all went great, cameras connected and detected motion and alerted me. I was connected to the same WiFi on my cell when I got the alerts for motion detection. But when I left WiFi range, I have not received an alert for motion. I still can enable the live stream though. Is there anything that would cause only motion alerts to stop working since I moved the base to a different WiFi network ?.

Try toggling the cellular data function in the mobile settings.

You can livestream when away from home?

What cameras and base do you have?

I have the VMB3000 with Pro 2 cameras.My back porch camera started sending me motion alerts, but my front camera is not. So I guess I'll play with the camera settings and sensitivity and see if it detects motion. Thank You !.

I thought all cameras did that. Thank You !.

They should, but I wasn't completely sure I understood your symptoms.

One easy way to test if this is WiFi related is to simply turn off wifi on your phone.
