Wireless is not my choice ( I know the drawbacks). This system is to monitor my parents (89 & 87) both of which were in the E-room & Hospital last weekend at the same time due to falls.

My Sister takes care of them but also works. Sister wants a wireless system she can have within a a few days delivered (Amazon, Best-buy etc.). Sister has enough technical knowledge to handle wireless install.

There are more reasons than I care to go into about hard wiring for a system.

My sister has done her research and is looking at the following:

Netgear Arlo Pro 2 (minimum 4 cams. 6 cams more likely)

2 way audio is a must (sisters requirements)

She wants to go totally wireless (including the power source and it's a loosing battle on my end to try otherwise)


Any other system recommendations ?

this system DOES NOT need DVR and is really not a security camera setup.

My thoughts is that down the road once sister encounters the pitfalls of totally wireless i could make changes (like powerline adapters etc.).

Thanks

@EMPIRETECANDY posted about this camera. It may fit your bill and spend a whole lot less. These cameras are PTZ as well.

I don't think you can get "totally wireless" as you will be replacing/charging the batteries all the time and I know I don't have to tell you, but your sisters expectations are a bit misaligned.
