You may be pushing the sync button on the base too long. 2-3 seconds sounds too long and you may have been lucky on the first two cameras. Press the sync button only very briefly, under 1/2 second.

 

The longer time is obsolete. The UI has since been updated and now requires a shorter push on the sync button.

Yes, try a base station reset.

 

Perhaps, first from the app: Settings -> My Devices -> <Your base station> -> Restart.

 

If that doesn't work, try power-cycling the base station.
