Hey everyone. Can you recommend me a reasonably priced outdoor, weatherproof, wireless IP camera HD, would like 3.6mm lens etc that will work with Blue iris?

I was using a Zmodo ZP-IBI13-W which worked awesome, but it got water in the ethernet connector and fried it. ( I even had it in a small plastic bag to try and keep weather off it)

The new Zmodo cameras with just the smart connector (power only) will not work with Blue iris, seems to be designed to just work with cell phones.

I have also tried a couple Foscam cameras but they are junk. Huge, grainy image, wireless signal is worst I ever seen, always dropping out, even 15 feet away from router.

Looking for solutions, make /model of cameras to use.

@italyguy01 Welcome to the forum. I suggest you find a way to wire up the camera. Its way more reliable than wifi. Second option would be powerline. If you insist on wifi, remember that any camera can be wifi with a cheap wifi bridge. Look at the hikvision 2mp/4mp cams..lots of info on them around here.
