Hey @Tmcott. Happy to help here! What device is this happening on? Could you show me a recording from a week ago in comparison to what it looks like now?

I spent half hour on my phone with ring rec two weeks ago. We changed a bunch of settings, and it seemed to work at night, and now it's not working again. My neighbor asked if we had a recording of this guy walking door to door at 2:00 am. So I checked. I had no recordings after 8:00 pm. This is ridiculous. I just paid my $110 annual fee! For what?

I have a wired model and also have this problem, it just doesn't record from 8pm (or around that) to 7am next morning. Support has no idea how to help, that's my impression. Asked me to change modes which also didn't help. Now asked me to turn off advanced motion detection, which I find absurd as I don't want to be notified by falling leaves and animals walking by. Please help

Hi @Devizes. If the motion detection for your Camera is not working correctly during the night, try the following steps: * [Optimize your Motion Settings](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/210243483-Utilizing-Motion-Zones-with-your-Ring-Devices) for your Camera. One example of this would be increasing the Motion Sensitivity of your Camera. * [Reboot your Camera using the Ring app](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/7438395032980-How-to-Reboot-your-Ring-Doorbell-or-Security-Camera-from-the-Ring-App-). * Disable [Smart Alerts](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360032947972-Refining-Your-Motion-Alert-Notifications-for-People-and-Other-Motions-) if you have them enabled to see if that makes a difference. * Verify your Camera’s signal strength, also known as [RSSI, is at a good level](https://community.ring.com/t/how-it-works-your-ring-device-rssi-good-vs-poor/229). As mentioned in the previous comments, verify that you are testing your Motion Detection yourself during the night to see if your Camera detects you.
