    “Putting a camera directly on the Internet is not a good idea. I don’t care whose camera it is.”

    Oh, OK. Thank you for clarifying that! It answered some questions that began forming in my mind, because I had mistakenly thought that every device INSIDE our WiFi would need the certificate. So I was beginning to wonder how one would import a certificate on, for example, a garage door opener...

    “Putting a camera directly on the Internet is not a good idea. I don’t care whose camera it is.”

    Thanks! When a family member visits, we've always let them into our LAN with the router access password. I've never looked into "guest" access. But I think I would want to set up guest access after switching to OpenVPN, yes? That way I wouldn't have to import the cert. to guest devices that...

Could you explain in general terms why using the above method is more secure than using port...

    Someone Steals Our Neighbor's Solar Lights

    You have a very nice, clear, video recording! I'm curious if you installed your CMVISION R110 114 LED IR Illuminator to avoid spiders building webs around each IR equipped camera, and if so, did that help? I've been considering using an IR Illuminator for that reason, and thus turning off the IR...

    Microseven® M7B57-WPS and Blue Iris?
