    I’ve been thinking of getting a camera setup, but all the popular stuff is cloud crap, and the best options seem to be Chinese crap that I wouldn’t trust on my network, so I’ll need a separate network for them.

    It’s a pain! Why can’t I just get the popular hardware and just disable the stuff I don’t want?

    It’s frustrating that nearly everything is either a security risk, a privacy risk, or a vendor lock-i, and often all three.

      Look into ubiquiti stuff. Keep in mind it’s prosumer/near enterprise equipment though, so has a higher cost associated with it.

        Thanks for the tip. I have an AP from them, and it works really well. Guess I’ll have to look at the rest of their product stack.
