Motion sensor timeout

Describe the bug Occasionally, both of my RLC-410 5MP cameras report an “unknown” motion sensor state. I have verified it in the Synology Surveillance Station (which is used for recording the streams) that no motion indeed occurred and that the cameras were available. Cameras and the HA device are in the same network.

To Reproduce I am not able to reproduce the error ‘on demand’. In HA logs, I can see

2022-02-03 18:02:55 ERROR (MainThread) [custom_components.reolink_dev] Timeout fetching reolink.Kamera 2.motion_states data 2022-02-03 18:02:55 ERROR (MainThread) [custom_components.reolink_dev] Timeout fetching reolink.Kamera 1.motion_states data

Expected behavior The motion sensor to be available always.

Thats a good idea. What about a number in the settings next the timeout in seconds with how many retry it should do?

Which fork are we switching to? I see 98 of them.
