Q: is this system wireless

A: Cameras connect to base dvr/nvr wirelessly. They do require a wired power source. A 12v wall-wart with 9ft cord is included with each camera. The base has it's own wifi that the cameras use, they do not use your home's wifi. . The base needs a wired ethernet connection to the internet.

Q: Most wireless wideband security systems supplied have four cameras. Yours has eight. What issues does this cause? If all eight are feeding data at one time are there bandwidth issues. How many frames per second do you send for each camera.

A: I’ve had no issues with loss of any camera or overload on bandwidth. I keep my on motion detection instead of continuous recording. Saves data and storage space but you can still monitor it in live mode. I haven’t had any issues.

Q: Is this identical to the 4 camera system just with 4 more cameras?

A: For the most part, yes. However, if you ever want to expand beyond 4 cameras you won't be able to with the 4 camera system since it only supports 4 total channels. I needed a 6 camera system and had to go with the 8 camera product since I couldn't expand the 4 camera version. All of the other specifications seem to be identical. One item to note, it uses its own wireless network not your home wireless network so placement of the DVR unit is very important to ensure you can receive a signal from all of your cameras. I'm still having an issue within one of my cameras not always showing up.

Q: Can the NVR be installed wirelessly to the home internet?

A: With our wireless NVR, the cameras wirelessly connect to the NVR's built-in Wi-Fi. This will enable you to locally access your system from a TV/monitor using the included HDMI cable. Internet in only required for remote viewing. To access your Wireless NVR system from a Smart Device, PC or Mac, you will need to hardwire your unit to your router using the included Ethernet cable. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!

Q: can it be upgraded to color or is it just black and white

A: This system is all color (video). Only black and white is the night vision. If your talking about the color of the camera bodies, I haven't seen any upgrades for color change.

Q: Can the cameras mounting bracket be used as a sturdy base to place camera on window sill, without having the image upside down? i don't want to have to physically mount the cameras to wall or ceiling. Does the night vision feature work through windows?

A: No to both. The mounting bracket needs to be secured to a surface, usually wall or ceiling. It cannot be used as a stand. Also, the Night Vision will not work through windows and there will be a red glare at night when the cameras enter Night Vision. Thank you.

Q: Can you add more cameras then the 4 that comes with it?

A: Yes. This is an 8 Channel system and can hold up to a total of 8 Wireless 1080p Cameras. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!

Q: Do I need to hire a electrician to wire the cameras? Or when installed by Best Buy. Do they do the wiring? And how and where will they be wired?

A: No you won't need a electrician..my husband did everything himself. He did everything in about 2 days.....but he is 79 years old and wasn't in any hurry to get it done. Hiring the guys from Best Buy's would be much faster but it is also very expensive. Hope this helps!
