Hello, my driveway is 15 meters long, and my camera is at the top end, with a side entrance at 7 meters, and another level with the camera. The camera only picks up movement from around 2 meters and 7 meters away from the camera. By that time the subject has disappeared, or I get just a glimpse of them. So I get a movement alert, but little to see. Is there a way to adjust the “distance sensitivity “? I have the sensitivity set to the highest.

Hi @RLatchu

 

It looks like distance and the maximum detection range may be an issue here. I have provided an article providing details regarding the position/sensitivity placement.

 

How do I position my Arlo wire-free camera?

Thank you for your advice. I am still trying to get the time to implement some of your recommendations.
