Umm....yes, thats why you disable the wifi for the price. I am sure you will find something wrong with that too though. Incase you dont know how to spell it is *difference* See you can't see why ...... basic networking netgear switch is cheap ..... Is that a problem for you Define cheap

Because it never works it's junk and does not conform to any standards Look at netgear .... Go to a local store ...$5 more? http://www.ebay.com/itm/D-Link-DIR-815-600Mbps-Wireless-N-Dual-Band-4-Port-Router-N600-w-Firewall-/371320150053?hash=item567467d825:g:1uUAAOSwEeFVR7zw

While we are on this subject, what does everyone think about these cheap switches for use with IP cameras? http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-port-RJ-45-10-100-1000-Gigabit-Ethernet-Network-Switch-Auto-MDI-MDIX-Hub-DC-5V-/291738459332?hash=item43ecf79cc4:g:d8EAAOSwKfVXEMHe I really only need to splice into 2 at the end of a run but a 5-port is a standard size.

I enjoy a good challenge, worth my money for fun at this point.

Sure, if you are in the middle of nowhere with noone else around that uses wifi. Otherwise you might not even have those 48Mbps. Or you might have them today, but not tomorrow. I thought that is what channels are for on a router? This seems like it would be a big issue for personal Wifi networks in the city if this were the case, nobody would ever get steady networks speeds. Everytime I speedtest over Wifi it is the same so I know my Wifi is always a stable speed and I have never had an issue with that. Thanks for your advice.

You, are the only one here arguing. I am asking for an elaborating for understanding.

The wifi spectrum is not yours, unless you live in the middle of nowhere with no neighbours. You might have the needed bandwidth today, but not tomorrow. 8 cameras @ 6Mbps each is 48Mbps on a 300Mbps router serving no computers or anything else wireless. I do not understand how my bandwidth is going to fluctuate from day to day, can you elaborate?

Thank You

Sure it can be, I have separate NICs for cctv and mobile devices. Separate routers too, no cctv traffic flows over my network that laptops and phones use for Internet.

What is wrong with wifi cameras on a dedicated network??

Seems like if you want a 1080p wifi camera there are three main Sony sensors to choose from. The 322, IMX222, and 1/2.7 - does anyone have input on which may be a better sensor? Rebranding aside what's inside matters most

Yes I would do the same on the opposite side and feed my hardwired PCs into router #1. This makes a lot of sense If I paid for a copy of BlueIris, or something similar, I could skip the entire cost of a DVR...and start investing in wireless IP cameras.

I saw a really good video and between CVI and TVI I kind of liked the TVI: There is a recorder on eBay that claims 5mp: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1080P-2MP-HD-TVI-DVR-8Ch-Tribrid-support-Analog-1080P-TVI-IP-Camera-Up-to-5MP-/151900370093?hash=item235df7b4ad:g:4fEAAOSwH71XPe~6 TVI3!? I will start that research now, great advice. HD TVI --(RG6)---> DVR ---> Second NIC I do not really need a secondary NIC in this case in the server, only if I was pulling 8 individual IP cameras raw was my thought. Once I am streaming all the channels compressed from the DVR I see no need for the second NIC. My thought on the second NIC was this, with 8 IP cams all wireless: LAPTOPS/PHONES --(802.11N/AC)---> ROUTER #1 --(CAT6)---> SERVER NIC #1 - Load from streaming files ALL WIFI CAMS --(802.11N/AC)---> ROUTER #2 --(CAT6)---> SERVER NIC #2 - Load from cameras only

I do not need IR I use motion lights right now. My cameras are 24vAC but when I upgrade they will likely move to 12vDC. I am more curious on structure strength and longevity (oxidation, chipping, etc). I am also concerned about maybe the design of the heater/ventilation from product to product. Anyone who owns them would be of great help
