I got the cameras and I have been set up for about a month everything will set up perfectly. One of my cameras working really well almost to good really I picked up a car behind a bunch of trees and brush about 100 feet away. Now the camera doesn't seem to be picking up good at all you almost have to be right up in front of it or about 5 feet away before the camera goes off. What do I need to do to help correct this issue?

Get a damp cloth and wipe over the area for the PIR sensor, not the lens.
Open the battery compartment for 10 seconds and then close it again. Make sure the blue LED blinks quickly as the camera reconnects to the base station. See how the motion detection goes after that
