Hi from Alabama

[ajmikola]

hello,
My name is alex. I am seeking advice. I have a really junky old night owl 720 system, ran the wires myself.
I have researching....alot.....for a new system.
I want to keep an eye on my house and the front street. Watch my kids, etc, etc.
I dont want a generic system, but i cant really afford a high end.
My budget is 800$ max.
Not afraid to run ethernet for PoE, i dont know about ip setup, but am a quick learner. The amount of stuff is daunting, i need a little help.
Thx
