I have 4 Arlo Pro cameras setup outside of my house, 1 inside. One of them (outside) is too easily triggered, particularly when I either "arm" the system or change modes (geofencing). For instance, I'll go from geofencing mode, when I arrive home, to arming just a few of the cameras. One of them will immediately turn on and I'll end up getting 15 or so video clips, virtually no time lapse between them. This happens daily, and there's nothing, no motion to cause it. I've adjusted the settings to be less sensitive but hasn't made a difference. I've moved this particular camera close to the home station, still does it. 

Any suggestions? Bad camera? 

It does work otherwise, but the darn thing is neurotic. 

 

Thanks

Open and remove the battery pack, replace( reset camera )... then in SETTINGS remove the camera and use REMOVE DEVICE

Then bring back as new ( resets all settings to default )

 

Finally, Swap the trouble camera with another location working well to see if the problem follows the camera..

 

if the trouble continues Contact Netgear with a trouble report
