I just installed the Arlo Wired Video Doorbell. The viewing angle of the camera captures the front yard, driveway and street however, the motion detection does not activate until a subject is about 10 feet from the door. Motion detection sensitivity is set high (100). Activity Zone settings are not working. Is this the normal expected range? Is there a way to expand the motion detection range and capture on video activity further out within the viewing range of the doorbell camera?

My activity zones aren't working either, but I am getting lots of motion detection from vehicles that are quite a bit further away than 10 feet. I haven't figured out the max distance yet for a person walking to the door. It appears to have lookback, which makes that a bit hard to test.

The maximum detection distance is around 10-15 feet from the doorbell. While motion may be detected beyond that, it will be inconsistent.
