I’d like to set up three or four cameras on the exterior of my house, but I’m not sure where to start with this project. Ideally, these cameras would get power over Ethernet and record to a hard drive in my house that I could access remotely with a decent user interface. If the system could notify me when movement is detected that would be ideal as well. I don’t like the idea of using a Google, Amazon, or similar product because I don’t want to pay a subscription and I want to have control of the footage. What are you using that more or less accomplishes what I’ve described?
^ This post right here. I also have Reolink cameras, solar powered wifi versions, and they have been great. The hub is perfect for storing the data as it has two SD card slots. Easily integrates into home assistant and the Reolink UI works well in the phone or computer apps.
