QuestionI'm looking at using this through a mobile hot spot for my cabin. Would this stream data continuously or only when we access the streaming feature? It's a concern because I have a limited data plan.
Asked 8 years ago by Tim.
- Answer If you live view remotely on your smart device, it will require more data and drain your battery. However, simply viewing the notifications that you receive and then closing out the App, is more data friendly. Thank you for choosing Night Owl!

QuestionHi I live in the country. We can only get internet through satellite and a Verizon jet pack. (We have both) if I hook up a wireless bridge to this system will I be able to get notifications and live stream through my mobile device? This is my only option
Asked 8 years ago by DD.
- Answer Good Afternoon. The only means we are able to recommend for customers remotely viewing their system, is to manually connect the DVR to an open port on their Modem/router. We cannot guarantee any other connectivity methods will work. Sorry for any inconvenience.
