All.
Constant lurker here, I am travelling back to old place this week to install the following:
Firstly, let me say buying from Andy via Paypal was smooth transaction, even though I hastily provided wrong ship to address in Paypal, and DHL was awesome and rerouted the packages from Colorado to Illinois no-charge while they were still flowing through their transportation network. Haven't seen them yet but know they arrived.
Secondly, where I am putting them has Comcrap internet 25/5. The streams are going to new home BI server via always-on VPN from remote ASUS router. The new internet connection does not have a cap as far as I've found, only the old place.
I guess I hadn't added up all the bandwidth requirements, because I figured I'd see it soon after I install everything and bp2008 has guided away from internet bandwidth calculators, but now I'm wondering if I am headed for trouble with regard to the following limitations:
Am I sunk before I begin? Will I be stuck with 1 FPS or crappy quality compression?
Constant lurker here, I am travelling back to old place this week to install the following:
- Currently have 1.3MP Amcrest mounted indoors, will move to outdoors garage
- Bought IPC-HDBW4231F-E2-M (2MP starlight PoE 3.6mm) dual-dome, adding to cover small back and side yards, guessing this will essentially count as two streams.
- Bought IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE (2MP starlight PoE 3.6mm) eyeball to cover rear full lot
- Bought IPC-HDW2531R-ZS (5MP PoE varifocal) to cover front yard which is well lit

- Assume I have a hard limit of 5 Mbps upload that is reasonably consistent, but honestly 3 Mbps is really the number that gets me to the 1TB cap.
- a hard limit of 1024 GB (1TB) per month, after which I will pay $10 per 50GB up to max $200
