Hi,

is it normal for the camera to make a clicking noise and then the floodlight to light up by itself  while in "deactivated mode" when a break of internet support occurs?

This is what happened last night and it was quite spooky.

Thanks in advance for your explanation.

AskingWhy,

 

This can happen if the camera wakes up and tries to communicate with the base station or router. If you had an internet outage, the symptom you've described would simply be the camera re-establishing it's connection.
