Hello and good day.
I had had pretty good luck with Hikvision wired ethernet cameras. Specifically, I have used Foscam, Trivision, and Pyle cameras that all have hard-coded "P2P" functionality that causes them to make periodic (~30 seconds) connection attempts to random IP addresses on the internet, many of which geolocate to China.
Can anyone recommend an outdoor WiFi camera that does not have this behavior? I am aware that at least with the Foscam camera I used, the "P2P" functionality could not be disabled; even if the box was unchecked, the camera still made random connection attempts. I realize I can block outbound traffic from the camera on my router, but I'm looking for a safe camera I can recommend to realtives/friends who aren't technically savvy enough to do that. I am using the following Hikvision cam now:

Would love a WiFi version of that....
