    I need recommendation for good wifi cameras for indoor and outdoor (and potentially door bell, door lock, flood lights, and garage door opener).

    First, let me start by saying that I really do appreciate the thoughtful responses. I hope I am not coming off rude or disrespectful -- that is absolutely not my intention. I really do appreciate your advice and council. And my bad for missing the context. I read too fast. Yes, unfortunately...

    Ring doesn't integrate with Home Assistant well it looks like. So far everything points to Reolink + HA + Frigate.

    I need recommendation for good wifi cameras for indoor and outdoor (and potentially door bell, door lock, flood lights, and garage door opener).

    I really do appreciate all the feedback and concern -- I re 5k to go through multiple areas of solid concrete to get cables where they'd need to go. I was reading that cameras like Reolink support it and work fine with HA and other NVRs. Is that not true? My FW blocks any inbound requests...

    I need recommendation for good wifi cameras for indoor and outdoor (and potentially door bell, door lock, flood lights, and garage door opener).

    I get all that. I want whatever is the best I can get. I don't have an issue with the image quality of the Eufy. In fact, if I set up an NVR, the Eufy ones are nice. I am just not happy with them as a company, their support, the crappy UI, etc. This is not a concern for me. I work in...

    Yes. If you’re asking to try to help me run Ethernet, I assure you it’s not an option. I’ve had professionals come. They can do it but it’ll cost way more than I want to spend.

    I need recommendation for good wifi cameras for indoor and outdoor (and potentially door bell, door lock, flood lights, and garage door opener).

    I can’t run Ethernet. And power line won’t work in my house. I’ve spent a year trying to figure something out and it’s cost prohibitive for me. so it has to be WiFi + wall power.

    I need recommendation for good wifi cameras for indoor and outdoor (and potentially door bell, door lock, flood lights, and garage door opener).

    First, let me start by saying that we don't need this for safety/security. My threat vector is not the same as others. But I still want adequate quality, motion detection, and clarity. Second, I cannot run wires or use powerline adapters. Everything has to be wifi/wireless. I currently have...

    recommendation for an inexpensive (~50 USD) ONVIF/RTSP friendly wifi IP camera for apartment

    Agreed. I will only get what folks here recommend and/or I can confirm it supports ONVIF/RTSP. If nobody else has any recommendations I will get that Amcrest one.

    recommendation for an inexpensive (~50 USD) ONVIF/RTSP friendly wifi IP camera for apartment

    I see cheap ones on Amazon that do but then they don't say if they support ONVIF or RTSP which is more important to me. I suspect even if they do support, it isn't documented and would be a PITA to figure out. https://www.amazon.com/YI-Wireless-Security-Surveillance-Auto-Cruise/dp/B01CW4BN5M/

    recommendation for an inexpensive (~50 USD) ONVIF/RTSP friendly wifi IP camera for apartment

    Thank you! This is very helpful. The website doesn't say if it it supports automatic tracking. I assume that means it can't but thought I'd check with you first?

    recommendation for an inexpensive (~50 USD) ONVIF/RTSP friendly wifi IP camera for apartment

    I've checked around this forum and many folks are asking about, or recommending, legit home security systems that need PoE or hardwiring or other complex setups. I don't need/want anything that robust. I see Amazon is filled with inexpensive IP cameras. Some comments claim they do or do not...
