    Cameras on a detached garage. How to live view from the house?

    Thank you for the advice. I will definitely look into it. Like this one? https://www.amazon.com/Synology-DS120j-DiskStation-Diskless-512MB/dp/B07ZKSLVT5 What about cameras? The camera that is working for me is an Amcrest bullet camera that I purchased from amazon (no more Temu for me!). Should...

    Cameras on a detached garage. How to live view from the house?

    I agree that it's strange that I can't use the IP VIEWER to view the IP camera that works fine with the NVR. I tried again today and found that I can partially access the camera using its IP address, but it has a very old web interface that uses Adobe Flash, so it won't allow for a live view. It...

    Cameras on a detached garage. How to live view from the house?

    Update! I set up the RT2600 as a node for the RT6600AX and connected a TP-LINK POE switch with the two POE cameras that had been connected to the NVR. I then installed an app on my MacBook called IP Camera Viewer 2. This software detected one of the cameras (not the original camera that was...

    The basement has my office with the Mac, but the router and the Tmobile home internet gateway is on the 2nd floor for the best signal. That's why things are a bit of a pain to connect because they are spread between 2 buildings, and 3 floors. :o) I'm going to order the POE switch.

    Cameras on a detached garage. How to live view from the house?

    Update. I installed the mobile app for the NVR and can see the live view of the cameras from my phone. I tried to access the NVR from my MacBook using Chrome and it won't show the camera. Both the mobile app and web app are really slow and have a pretty crummy interface. Now I'm thinking that I...

    A POE hub is a switch then? Connect the 2 camera's ethernet ports to the switch and connect the switch with an ethernet cable to the MR2200 (I actually have an older synology router laying around), bring the NVR into the house and connect it to the RT6600 with an Ethernet cable and voila? Do I...

    That's a problem as the garage has no windows and the router is located on the 2nd floor so there would be no line of sight.

    I bought it based on one of my writers who had purchased it and several cameras and was raving about the image quality and how rock solid it is. He has his all hardwired unlike what I need to do though. I have not tried to connect to the live feed through the NVR's web interface because I...

    Yes, I did that. I am going to try moving the powerline adapter to a different outlet today.

    Did you actually just draw that for me? Ah but here's the question... After setting this up, how do I connect the display in the house to view the cameras from the NVR/cameras in the garage?

    Oh yeah? Ok, now we're talking! So what would that setup look like exactly?

    Unfortunately, I'm kind of stuck where the outlets are right now for both the house (near the router) and the garage where the Ethernet cables coming off the cameras have been routed. ‍

    Ok, but then when I am watching the live feed, it would be going through my TMobile home internet, right? I'm afraid that would make the rest of my network slower and would use a lot of data.
