Thanks Phil - I think I'll give it a try to help reduce the number of climbs of a ladder trying to keep it clean.

I can't really find a definitive answer anywhere on this one. I have a dome on an old building that gets a bit of splash back when the rain is heavy from the ancient stonework, which when the water dries gives it a cloudy effect at night. It's not the most accessible dome, so it's not easy to...

You can go wide with 2.8mm - see lots from one camera - but as you try to zoom in for detail, things that are still fairly close in real physical distance may not have the detail you want. 4mm is a little narrower, see a little more detail, but less in view. There are then varifocal cameras that...

Before you order - do you have the tech skills and knowledge to set the system up? Or know someone with appropriate knowledge? As much as I listed part numbers that suit your budget - they may not necessarily be the right cameras for your location. For example - the cameras I mentioned come...

With cameras you do get what you pay for - Reolink is a budget brand designed for the domestic market - and can be found prominently in places like Amazon. If something goes bang - it has to be replaced with another Reolink part. If you go for something like Hikvision - cameras can be sourced...

This problem appears to have been resolved :) Both iPhones now no longer dragging the screen when adjusting the PTZ to the right. Much easier now :) PTZ fixed

Do you have power available at the bottom of the garden? If so - over a 100ft is certainly doable with a bridge....

Probably get the installer back in to see what cameras he recommends to maximise the quality you can achieve with what you have. If you already have the NVR I wouldn't be bothering with nest cameras or anything like that - I'd keep it all in one place.

You may find that the first two cameras were max'd out on quality and FPS - and that adding another two cameras will mean you'll have to downgrade their settings to accommodate the new ones It's a bit like a pint of milk holds a pint of milk - equivalent to how many resources your NVR has. Two...

Ok - so your unit utilises BNC connections - so any new camera will need to have its own power supply and a BNC cable running to it. You can use network cable and baluns instead of traditional BNC cables which will make things easier - but you'll need to work out what cameras are connected - and...

You'll need to provide model numbers - there are so many variations of equipment out there...

£800 doesn't sound too bad for 2 cameras and an NVR if the spec was decent. Hard to answer your question without knowing what you have. If you have a POE system - you'll need POE cameras - how good are you at building network cables to the length you'll need? Have you got the tools? Lots of...

How far is 'a bit away'? If the budget was available - you could have a POE powered switch at one end connected to a wireless bridge - which then connected to the other end of the wireless bridge - and then to your NVR...

I’ve just fitted a second unit to a parish hall in a little Welsh village - now you can’t complain at getting speeds like these!

They have a 4g option as well for £14 a month. 14 day return if you're not happy with it. Unlimited as well.

From my understanding - third streams only work in certain circumstances. I don't think you can view it directly via your NVR. I use third streams as 'live-streams' and a program called OBS takes the stream and converts it for transmission. I have a feeling that it's intended for live-streaming...

Then definitely look at the Three coverage in your area - this is the speedtest I've just run on a remote PC at a church at the top of a mountain, which realistically isn't actually that near any mobile towers, but due to its height I think we've been lucky to get a decent connection. These...

Is there a broadband connection existing in any building? As mentioned which is the nearest building that you control with a broadband connection ? It doesn’t matter if it’s not at that site if it’s within around a km…

Based on your photo above then yes you could use a wireless bridge - the cost of the parts would be likely less than £200 and you’d use your existing network and there would be no ongoing charges. You’d run a network cable to a receiver/transmitter from your existing router at one end - and then...

If your NVR was at the yellow arrow - but your own building with the broadband connection was at A B or C for example - you could use a wireless bridge rather than a 4G router. They can work over quite a distance.
