Newbie trying to put cameras around my house.
I have Charter internet with the plan on connecting it to a Linksys WRT1900ACS router.
Questions:
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
I have Charter internet with the plan on connecting it to a Linksys WRT1900ACS router.
- Feeds a desktop computer used from internet browsing, Netflix streaming, etc.
- Feeds a Linksys LGS308p POE router about 75 feet away.
- Feeds a Windows 7 8MB RAM computer (only used for the cameras).
- Feeds 4 dome cameras (Dahua IPC-HDW1300E) all within 100 feet of this router.
- Feeds another Linksys LGS308p POE router about 100 feet away.
- Feeds remaining 4 dome cameras (Dahua IPC-HDW1300E) all within 200 feet of this router.
- I will be running Cat6 stranded cable.
- From incoming internet feed to furthest camera is about 500 feet.
- The intent is to access the cameras via 4 smartphones (Android and iOS) throughout the day/evening. Maybe 3-4 daily viewings per phone for a minute or so per camera. (Just checking the property ...no on-going visual monitoring.)
- I would like a stream-recording from each camera saved for at least 1 week.
- I have a no-ip.com account to handle DDNS.
Questions:
- Can my Windows 7 8MB RAM computer handle this?
- What software do you recommend?
- Are my routers okay?
- Is the distance between the routers and cameras okay?
- Can I eliminate the 2nd router?
- Will computer/software handle a future expansion of 5-8 cameras?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
