Thanks @mat200 . I jumped the gun and forgot to add the locations of the entrances to the house but have now updated the diagram. There is an entrance at the front of the house just to the left of camera location "2" and a second entrance on the bottom left corner of the house (left of camera...

Hi, My family is living in Uganda and I am getting ready to install cameras on our compound. Attached is a diagram of our compound (dimensions in feet) and my proposed locations for the cameras. We have the following cameras and I would appreciate recommendations on which cameras you recommend...

Re: They don’t come with an Ethernet cable, so you’d have to provide/wire. Thank you. What type of Ethernet cable: Cat-5, Cat-5e, Cat-6 or ? Is there an advantage to one over another? Thanks again!

Haha, that's there as well. We'll be working out of a city of about 60,000 so it's a little more developed. The house is actually quite nice and the area is beautiful.

Hello, My family is moving to Uganda in a month where we will work as missionaries for the next couple years. There has been an uptick in home invasions/robberies over the past couple months so in addition to my Lorex camera system, Ring alarm and LED motion detectors I'm looking for additional...

Hi, I'm not super tech savy and am looking to install a basic security camera system to watch over our property while our family moves to Uganda as missionaries in February. Good night viability and app notifications of potential intruders are important. Also, internet is spotty at best so I...
