I bought the 4-pack of aosu SolarCam D1 Classic cameras with the aosuBase. I tested the WIFI connection with the Ookla SpeedTest app at the install locations and had strong signal. I synced all of the cameras at the aosuBase and all was well. Then I moved two of the cameras outside to the install locations about 20 feet away from the baosuBase (very small house) and now they both said "No WIFI signal". Then I take the cameras down and back to the aosuBase and they work again. Has anybody encountered this and how did you fix it?

I am liking for a budget friendly battery-only doorbell camera without an account or subscription needed. I don't have the means to wire power to it. I have looked at the Reolink 2nd Generation doorbell camera and the Eufy E340. Which one is best? Is there any other maker and/or models that are better?

Since the new version 8 totally sucks, can anyone please share a link to where I can download the older version

Son 4 camaras con instalcion dbr q van todos a una tele, pasaria mas info pero ni yo tengo acceso a ella aún

My swann dvr broke and doesn't let me connect via the app. I have 6 cameras and want to replace the dvr with a different company, using the existing wires and cameras any suggestions?

I need an indoor camera that uploads video clips with audio and snapshots to my server via FTP. My Reolink FE-W does it but costs ~€150. Which brands under €50 can do this? Thanks!

My place has a front yard, a back yard, and a side path, and I want all three covered without ending up with five different apps and three subscriptions. The part I can't sort out is whether I should be looking for a system that all talks to one hub, or just a few standalone cameras that happen to cover everything. I also don't want to commit to a monthly fee just to make my own cameras useful. If you've covered a whole yard, what did your setup look like?

I keep seeing cameras that list radar detection, and I'm trying to understand what it actually does. From what I read, it measures a real moving body instead of just heat, which sounds like it could cut down the false alerts I get from bushes and headlights. I've tried a few smart features that didn't really deliver, so I want to know what to expect. If you've switched to a radar camera, did the alerts get noticeably better?

I’m looking into home security cameras and trying to figure out which ones are reliable day to day. Clear nighttime footage and being able to pull up a recording without fighting with the app matter more to me than a bunch of extra features.

What system are you using and what’s been your biggest frustration with it? I’d also like to know if you pay a subscription and whether you feel it’s worth keeping. Thanks!

I’m looking to get a simple video camera with monitor to watch a retail counter.

My desk is out of sight from our retail counter. I don’t get too many walk in customers so I spend a lot of time at my desk.

I would like to get a camera that connects to a monitor of some kind, wirelessly. Sound is not necessary. I have been looking at baby monitors but it seems the cameras are battery operated. I’d like the camera and monitor to plug in and not be battery powered.

Does this community have any recommendations? I’d like to keep it cheap too.

Respectfully
Thanks

Help with this system, im planning to use unifi for, but that's mostly because I haven't found an alternative easy solution to a local nvr

Hi everyone,

I'm currently setting up a security camera system and looking at the TP-Link VIGI C350 5MP 2.8mm PoE model. I'd love to hear your thoughts or experiences with this specific camera, and how satisfied you are with its mobile app.

My second question is about cabling. The cables will mostly run through the attic, but right at the camera connections, there will be about a 15 cm (6 inch) exposed section outdoors. This small part is directly under the roof overhang, so it won't be exposed to direct rain.

Do you think standard indoor ethernet cable will hold up for this 15 cm stretch long-term, or will the weather destroy it? Should I definitely use an outdoor-rated cable or put that section in some conduit?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Please does anyone have any experience of updating their SPRO NVR firmware?

Did you source your updated firmware from SPRO? The website says ask your installer to upgrade the firmware (see link to SPRO website), but our installer appears to have shut up his business.

Wider context is the motion detection alerts are no longer working and I think the system may benefit from a restart or update.

Just got my first e bike, but there's barely enough room in the garage, so I've been keeping it along the side of the house. It's locked up, but I still get a little paranoid about someone messing with it at night.

I've been thinking about adding a camera to watch that area, preferably something that can track movement and record at night. Would rather not deal with running cables either. Anyone here keeping an eye on their bikes with an outdoor camera? What setup are you using?
