Stick up battery cam range

Evening, it seems I may need a little guidance with regards to camera setup or somethings not right haha I have a ring stick up cam battery (1 month old) and I seem to be having issues with its range for picking things up, it looks over a sloped bit of tarmac and is about 8 or 9 foot high yet when I have it on max sensitivity and all zones active it picks up hardly anything bar my cat and when a car moves withing 3m. As the suggested range can be up to 10m that's not ideal for me as I need at least 5 or 6m. I see a few posts mention that if the camera points down this may screw up the detection which kind of defeats the idea of being able to tilt it but hey, if I put it more level I miss the start of the bit I'd like to see so thats not ideal either. I see on previous version of the app they allowed you to set the range of how far you wanted to go, this app only gives the sensitivity, is this the same thing? Also with regards to chime Pro and extending the WiFi range for maybe another camera, does this extend the WiFi for all devices that use my WiFi or is it a ring internal mesh that is only used by your devices? Any help would be great. Cheers
