I guess it could hijack your router/nvr and use it's wireless capabilities to connect to another wireless network with internet access, but if your nvr/router does not have any wireless capabilities, that is impossible.
If they're hardwired into your main network with no separation, you're taking a big chance anyway.
Mine isn't really set up yet, only have one cable run so far. I'm planning to have my server in a closet, with one or two cat6 cables run up through the ceiling to a poe switch, which will be powering 5-8 cameras. I still need to run the other eth cables in the attic, and power for the switch.Is this how you have your setup?

Local monitor, or if I get a switch that supports it, over a private lan, and later via vpn.And you plan to access it how?

No, the plan is for a separate network. I may combine them in the future, but not without appropriate precautions (hardware, or at least software separation). With the right configuration, there is nothing a bad actor could do to compromise a network and break out. That's different from simply connecting your router to the switch your cameras are on or putting them on a wireless network and calling it a day.You are doing exactly the opposite of what you originally posted.
After seeing some of the stuff I've seen about the Chinese, I don't trust them at all. There's a lack of moral ethics that runs deep ime, and I don't want that garbage in my home or my country.My concern with Chinese made cameras is what's stopping any of these Chinese companies to become the next Huawei and steal our data? It could be a huge security risk. Not only do they have our wifi passwords and a live feed of our homes but also our habits and daily lifestyle.
I actually don't even vote. I really could care less what the politician crooks are doing until they mess with me--then we have a problem.yikes, we have a trumper here folks!

Yeah, but I live my life on quarter mile at a time...wait, wrong phrase, lolWish I could be naive as well.. but sounds like you need to step up and.get to voting! We are all under attach daily. Our basic freedoms are at risk. Their is a war going on for your/our first and 2nd amendment! They are currently censoring people online..
I could go on and on but hopefully you find the right news source and wake up!
Yes, but they'd have to get close enough to cut it first, and if you have a camera pointed in that direction you have them. Wireless can be jammed from outside the camera's fov, then the camera can be destroyed or taken so any local storage is useless (although a thief might not go through the effort).

Cameras most of the times won't help with prosecution unless they're really high res and capture what they need to, but it's their role as a deterrent where they do make a difference.Most people dont look at the camera, or just wear a hat because people put them up too high, or if it is a doorbell camera they look down or the quality sucks so bad on 99% of these camera's you cant even make out a face anyways
You know what that NSA, et al are doing with the data, and there are laws that do regulate this (enforcement may be another issue but the law exist). Do you know what the Chinese are doing, and what legal (or other) protection you think you'll get from them?Ever heard of the NSA? Oh and google... and facebook... ya they already know and have all that stuff on you, Chinese are no worse than the American's or any of the 5 eye's countries.
Height, build, clothing is better than nothing. If they're wearing a wig at least you know the color or length. If an investigation takes place (say, a homicide or arson occurs, or other major crime) any evidence can be useful. But whatever floats your boat, I guess.Most people dont look at the camera, or just wear a hat because people put them up too high, or if it is a doorbell camera they look down or the quality sucks so bad on 99% of these camera's you cant even make out a face anyways
That's a really good read, although the forum owner of ipcamtalk is an absolute ahole.that why this wiki exists https://ipcamtalk.com/wiki/ip-cam-talk-cliff-notes/ , that's why you use cams with good sensors and or resolution and tune things. but, with all the theft anymore i doubt the cops waste their time.
Some good advice on upnp, which is a bad deal to turn on unless you really need it. Cameras honestly don't need direct access to the Internet unless they are to a cloud nvr. Otherwise they should only be wired to the dvr/nvr.I also use Hikvision and Blue Iris. From what I remember, every single camera manufacturer has had a flaw or problem at one point or another. Some don't patch them. The one common factor I remember being a culprit would be using default passwords and UPNP. Anytime there is a ONE BUTTON SETUP, you are asking for trouble. If you take the time to do some port forwarding and have a good gateway, then you can limit the exposure of the cameras to the outside world.

yeah but, what's the monthly or yearly cost? i know ring $30 a year per device
