Hi guys,
I have a question regarding if this -->https://www.amazon.com/Dropcam-Wireless-Definition-Monitoring-Security/dp/B00LESUX0O (or any other wi-fi cameras) will work without an internet connection. I understand that without wi-fi, the camera will not be able to work, but what if there is just no internet connection. Will it work still. What I mean is that will the camera be able to record to the server on the other end (in this case Nest server).
Currently, I want to schedule in my router to filter my two cameras at certain times of the day to be able to work (record, live stream) and at other times that I don't have to manually block it to have it set to be connected to the internet when I am not home. I have found out that I can do this in my router by filtering the ip address of the two cameras. My question is while these cameras are connected to the wifi, will it still be able to work given that I have blocked it from internet access (I blocked ports 1-65535 and udp and tcp)? Does it matter that I blocked both udp and tcp and blocked every port from 1-65535 including 80?
Thanks
