attached are two photos showing the location of 2 arlo pro 2 cameras on each side of our house. Problem is one side of the drive has a street light which is aprox 20 ft from the camera which is not bad and 30 ft from the middle of the road. We are trying to identify cars as we have had vandals.  The camera on the other side of the driveway on the house is aprox 30ft from the road also but no light so we are not seeing much all black an white. Question is should we attach a light up near the camera or down by the road? Or move the cameras closer to the road which would mean new electric outlet put in or use an extension cord.  We have had so much vandalism we need to figure this out.final pro 2 view.jpgroad light Image1.jpg

Hi @HAILITY

 

You might be running in to a distance/lighting issue from the environment. I have provided an article with more information regarding installation/positioning.

 

How do I position my Arlo wire-free camera?
