    Which to buy and why

    Thank you all for the info. I wanted to avoid POE cams for obvious reasons of trying to run cable throughout the house. I don't want them seen on the walls nor feel like drilling holes, running through walls, etc and it's not in the budget for pro install, then again, I do everything myself...

    Which to buy and why

    With the array of WiFi cameras on the market, I'm having a bit of difficulty deciding which brand to purchase. I have an old Foscam system and one Amcrest but think I want to go the route of one of the Smart Cams. Arlo is too expensive, Ring is too invasive, so I'm leaning towards Eufy, Blink...

    Remote access

    I have the much older Fi8910 models which have been functioning fine. I have them on my Foscam app and was able to view remotely but no longer can. I changed my router info a bit ago due to problems with connectivity and believe that's when the problem began. Trying again to get them set for...

    Rearview mirror cam suggestions

    Thank you, but I meant a dash cam incorporated with the rearview mirror and uses the mirror as the screen. Something like this ....https://www.amazon.com/WOLFBOX-G850-Mirror-Dash-Cam/dp/B0B1LLMCS9/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=rearview+mirror+dash+cam&qid=1662723774&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1

    Rearview mirror cam suggestions

    Looking for suggestions on a rearview mirror dash cam. I currently have a Yi cam and once had a rearview mirror cam and I prefer the mirror cam due to it's discrete position. Nothing with an extreme price but I'll pay for something that's worthwhile and can keep the time and date if the car...

    I forgot about responding with results, which was favorable. All cams updated and functioning. Thanks for the help.

    Reconnecting

    My router was experiencing intermitted connection and I haven't done a firmware update in a long time. I forgot my PW for the router and thus, had to reset and changed the network name and PW, which required resetting all connect WiFi devices. I thought the camera settings would partake within...

    Reconnecting

    I currently have older Foscam IP cams which have suffice for a long time without much failure. I view the cams on my iPad which stays on my desk and on my iPhone for remote access. I just had to reset my router which meant resetting all wireless devices. Resetting the major devices was fine but...

    Suggestions for outside cams

    As a PI, I often think of options to set up a camera on property to view remotely or at the least, to record to a card and retrieve for viewing. Obviously, that means the camera has to be battery operated and if I want remote access, I need to connect somehow. I've been using a trail cam for...

    Best option

    How about a motion activated floodlight camera?

    Best option

    if possible, yes. I should have been more specific. I wasn't thinking

    Best option

    I'm searching for the best two camera option, front and back of a home, nothing extreme but wanting in addition to motion activate lights to capture movements, etc. Prefer using an app and allow remote viewing and alerts if motion sensed . Having an SD card is advantageous for storage, unless...
