What I was looking for

Originally suggested with battery/solar/pir sensor because I wasn't thrilled with the power delivery. This camera was a total disaster and I sent it back. I unpacked these and checked them carefully before proceeding with the installation of outdoor sockets. This camera is securely connected to the network and motion detection is configurable. I don't trust P2P and implement it over VPN for streaming and restrict outbound SMTP connection for email notifications. Very satisfied.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Useless features

Difficult to use in a CCTV system

Day and night picture is good, but you have to work on the lowest picture quality settings to keep the picture from freezing. Bear setup, you'll have to try everything to see what it does. WiFi range is very good. I couldn't get it to work with any program I use to upload to the web. I tried Ispy and couldn't get it to work, only works for local use with their app only. I don't want to pay a monthly fee to use it on the site. It looks like I need to update all my settings to make it work…

  • Easy to read control panel

Works fine with camera and photo

Camera works fine after some problems, corrupted firmware. Sent email support, spoke to George and explained the problem. A copy of the firmware was sent and after that the camera works perfectly. The setup requires you to connect to ethernet first before you can use Wi-Fi, which is a bit odd but not a problem. I've read of people complaining about connection issues, I haven't had any. The camera is far away from the router in the basement and has a perfect picture, no disconnections and almost

WiFi connection COEXISTS

So. I'm not sure why they are trying to sell this as a wifi camera. I mean. It is connected via Wi-Fi. As long as the camera is within 10 feet of the router. (Remember I have a good router and my phone connects 3x further outside the house than the camera. I placed the camera on the other side of a cheap hollow door. Door open, camera connects. Door closed, camera does not connect Very cheap WiFi at all. I even fitted a bigger antenna than the one that came with the kit. Same thing. Picture…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Clarity

Good picture, poor motion detection control.

Pros:* Good picture quality in daylight.* Affordable. Cons:* The same settings control both image recognition and motion control. This causes two problems.1. Sensitivity. I want the camera to recognize cars and people. Therefore, set the sensitivity to high to more reliably detect distant vehicles. but the same setting also controls motion sensitivity. this makes it so sensitive that even the movement of a blade of grass triggers it. If you lower the sensitivity, people or vehicles will no…

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Some small things

Great camera. App needs some work

In the last 5 years I have had many home security cameras from different manufacturers. Reolink is one of the best home security camera manufacturers. This camera is well made and very easy to set up. It was very easy to connect it to my Wi-Fi network. Image/video quality very good during the day and at night; and the resolution is adjustable. The app could benefit from some improvements: 1 - Impossible to delete video clips which is annoying; However, the oldest videos will be overwritten when

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I will write later

Beware of support

When I installed the camera, I set it up by connecting directly to the router. Then I installed it outside and connected via wifi. When I connected to the app it asked for a password and the password on the camera was (blank) [no password]. I contacted Reolink support via live chat and received a call from a technician to resolve the issue. The technician asked a few questions and then asked if I had a computer on the network that he could access. I installed a program that gave remote access…
