L.S.,
I'll start to install a small camera system in my apartment : I need a doorbell camera, one interior and one for my terrace. I want to record on my own computer or possibly NVR when someone comes in the neighbourhood, not 24/7.
Is it preferable to have PoE cameras ? I'll probably need to install a switch as well. Wiring will have to be new.
Furthermore, I already had a Dahua IPC-K35S, which I had to send back because of bad functioning (within 2 days). I see Hikvision has a bewildering choice, but they are more expensive than Dahua. Is the additional cist justified?
Moreover, I do not want problems on back door trojans, or whatever filth can be distributed over the internet for DDoS infestations or whatever.
Lastly : I only have Mac, iPad and iPhone and I would like to keep it that way.
I read something about Foscam and F-secure.
Any help will be appreciated!
