We have a few WiFi cameras because I didn’t want to try to run PoE/cat cable to the ideal locations (and don’t have a good way to reach two of them. One camera looks down the lot toward the lake and has two cameras - one wide and one zoomed on our dock/boat. Both have motion sensors so we can tell if we get a dock pirate.
Other cameras watch the garage and driveway and other entry points. Ring for the doorbell and packages.
Very safe area, can leave our house unlocked and do unless going out of town overnight. Cameras provide alerts; not defense. That comes by other means.
I had a NVR and PoE cameras at the prior two houses and while I was fine with them my wife struggled to use them. Whatever electronics we have need to be user friendly enough for both of us. So we use a SD cards in each camera for storage and the app to “rewind” and see several days worth of video if needed. I hate putting anything personal or identifying on the Cloud.
