Sarrahbrianne,

 

Arlo Go motion detection works up to 23 feet. The motion you describe at 20 yards is out of the cameras detection range and any motion that would be detected will be inconsistent at best, as you've experienced. Consider relocating the camera closer to the area you wish to detect for better results.
