I have just gotten an EdgeRouter Lite wired router to beef up my home network. I currently have an 8 port Gigabit switch with 4 PoE ports. I will probably go with a NVR unit in my wiring closet. I could setup a dedicated port / subnet on the router for the Camera Network and put my regular network traffic on another port / subnet. I was thinking this would be the most efficient way to go about it, but I could be wrong. My thinking was to have the PoE switch running 4 cameras with one non PoE port going to the router and the other going to the non PoE NVR. I would then get an 8 port non PoE switch for my regular network devices (ie: printer, NAS, desktops) and connect that to a dedicated subnet on the router. Any suggestions from anyone else that has already done this?
Thanks,
