Hey guys,

I've absolutely had it with my Ring camera and doorbell, ive started using a network wide VPN and they are just too unreliable and expensive to continue - let alone actively blocking IPs from VPNs which I didnt know about and think is ridiculous.

I have looked in to Reolink cameras because I've seen someone talking about them before on lemmy, question is:

Have any of you used Reolink cameras and NVR in your setup and how well does it integrate / whats your opinion on the cameras themselves?

Have one since a few years. Works great, unfortunately every time it rains it resets the network settings... (Its outside) I had waterproofed the connectors but it still happens. Will need to put a small cover on tip of the camera itself sooner or later...
