All camera's are working fine except driveway camera. It will take numerous snapshots throughout the day when nothing is there, no there isn't any wind, passing cars or any type of motion. It won't take any snapshots when there is known motion such as garage door opening or someone walking up driveway. I can stand right in front of camera and it won't take snapshot. It I do motion detection test, red led lights come on as they should. Garage door is to immediate right of photo.

It's because the cameras are terrible. You have to be directly in front of it for it to work. Return it, I am doing the same tomorrow. Id rather spend more money for a camera that will work
