Yes! I have really learned alot from the members on this forum in the short time I've been here. Without their expertise I would still be in the dark , with Reolink Cameras hanging on my house trying to figure out how to get them to connect to Blue Iris.. I told my Husband the caneras are going...

I fell for the Reolink Cameras too. I called myself doing research but I failed miserably at it because I didn't see any bad reviews until after I bought the Reolink cameras.. I was disgusted.. They are going back today.

Thank you. I have really learned alot from the members here.

I'm so glad I seen this. I actually fail for it and bought the cameras.. I'm returning them this week and hoping I can find a good camera that can pick up in the pitch dark night.

I love this website! It has a wealth of information for someone like me that's easy to understand. Cable will be above ground. Thank you so much for all your help!

I actually read it somewhere on Reddit. It was the only time I seen anything about fiber optic internet. I remember reading a comment to the poster that if he was on fiber internet that he would need a poe. I went back to look for it because I was going to link it here and now I can't find...

I need to check into that, which cameras do you recommend? I also am planning on purchasing 2/3 doorbells.

Thank you! I just placed the order so I should get it in a couple days. Now I have to purchase my cable and tools to get the installation started. Should I purchase some POE Injectors? I read something about needing them if I have fiber optic internet. I don't know if that's true because...

Right now I will only have 3 cameras I'm going to put up and I want to get 2/3doorbells for all my doors. So that will be 5 and yes they will all be POE.

I found one on Ebay thars used but that might not be a good idea to purchase a used one, I may end up having to buy a battery for it in the end. I'm going now to purchase this off Amazon.

So can I use both of them at the same time? I'm sorry I don't know anything about POE switches or poe injectors, I just know or I think I know I need one to hook up the cameras to the computer. I am going to purchase a couple new cameras and then I will still have a reolink 811A camera...

Which camera do you recommend that won't break the bank? That first link in your comment wouldn't let me pull the page up.

What cameras would be a good choice that won't break the bank?

So if I use a switch like that do I still need a POE?

Which POE are you using for the Reolinks?

I bought a monitor off Dell that was on sale today. https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-24-monitor-s2421hn/apd/210-axhj/monitors-monitor-accessories

Thank you for this tip. Can you recommend one or does it need to be specific one for the computer?

Just l9ok over my typos in my last comment.. it looks like I was going to say something on that last link but its a typo.. lol

This is the computer I bought, I feelmlike I got a good deal since tge guy added the Purple WD 8TB. Now it's all set when it arrives and I hope i won't have to pop the hood...

Yep!

Also can someone recommend a monitor?

I need to buy an Active POE Switch, can someone please tell me if there's a particular brand I should buy - that's affordable?

Thank you for the link! I never new this existed.

I've placed the order for the PC. I'm getting the dell 7060 sff i5 8500 3.0Ghz 6 cores 240 SSD with a Purple WD 8TB added to it.

Thank you for the reply. Very helpful to know this.

Oh wow! I feel like it's a good deal considering it has to be shipped.

You got one helluva deal on that setup.

That's a hell of a deal their!

A guy quoted me $215 for a 256gb ssd, 16g ram, i5-8400 8th generation processor. I asked Jim how much he would charge to add a WD purple HD 8TB. And the price he qoutes for the computer adding the HD would be $450. Is there a specific graphic card that I need?
