I have about 8 wireless water sensor tags around my house to detect water leaks.  They had been very responsive when water is detected.  Their status change to “water detected” would update in the manger within a few seconds & I would get notifications I setup with 10 seconds.   Now, when I test a tag it takes between 10 and 20 minutes for their status to change in the tag manager & about that long to receive my alerts.  This started about two weeks ago.  Anyone have suggestions as to what might be happening?

The other issue that started around the same time is many of my tags would suddenly go out of range for a while, then come back in range.  Even tags that are 6ft from the manager would drop out. 

Before about two weeks ago, everything was very reliable and responsive.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Does this happen to all 8 sensors? Can you try wipe the tip clean?
