Hi. I bought a couple of outdoor SRI Cameras. they are IP? they run off my WIFI. I have the application that I can view them. However, they aren't recording to anywhere. I don't have the recording box. Break ins are frequent and these type of boxes are taken.

So I wanted cameras that can be uploaded to the web. I have no idea where to start. I think there is a company that helps down this for so much a month. Is it something I can do myself?

Welcome,
WiFi cams are un-reliable due to the WiFi being overwhelmed. Sricams are very poor quality cams, and have many issues. If you still can, send them back for a refund.

You want to know who did it, not just what happened, and the Sricams will struggle at best to give you a face ID.

Please read these threads.
Looking for some advice and direction!

Any of us here will be more than glad to help you further.

Welcome Melissa,

YOU definitely can do this yourself if you're willing to take some time to learn more about security cameras.

DO take a look at the references looney2ns posted and have fun learning.
