Within a two hour period I've had 25 events/motion triggers because the Arlo Camera for some reason captures a flash of light.  This is not by someone or a car passing by - It seems it might be a software or hardware issue.  Has anyone run in this or know a solution?

 

 

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

 

Note:

Link below includes a clip of what trigerrs the motion detection over and over again - Notice first second of clip includes a flash of light.

Target, if you don't give us all the info in the beginning, we kinda hafta start with the basics. Having details helps Internet troubleshooting.

It might be best to start a new thread so it's specific to you.

Have you changed the sensitivity down in Settings or in your modes and saved? It has to be in your modes.
