Hi all,
Got a few scenarios for the WiFi Reolink PTZ Cameras that I wouldn't mind seeing what the OzBargain Community has had experience with. My only experience thus far with the Reolink solutions is all POE Hardwided and using existing networks with PtP links.
Scenario One: Off-grid type solution with Starlink Mini for WiFi Connectivity for security/monitoring in Farming. No NVR, just internet connectivity.
What recording solutions are available? Cloud storage like https://cloud.reolink.com/? Maybe FTP? Still send notifications etc?

Scenario Two: House Solution: external garage with Outdoor WiFi from the house (about 10 meters away), which will have NVR inside the house. 240V power available in the garage, so powering the camera won't be a problem. Just trying to avoid having a Point to Point link to this one garage for 1 camera.
Connect to the NVR all okay? Reliability all okay? Obviously, it is reliant of WiFi so if there is an issue there, then it will go offline. 2.4GHZ and 5GHZ WiFi would be available.
Anything else that I haven't thought of or need to consider?
Appreciate all input.
Cheers.
It's really all dependent on WiFi signal and position. I've had an old 410AW for years now and it was rock solid in the original position with maybe 1 or two dropouts per day for a few seconds each. I moved it to a different area for better surveillance coverage and in the new position it's super flakey. Maybe 20-30 drop outs per day now for a few minutes each time.
