Q: QuestionI plan to buy 4 wireless camera with DVR. There is no outdoor power outlet. Your technician need to drill a hole through the stucco/drywall; behind the camera; so the power cable can pass through and plug into indoor outlet. Will it add any extra cost?

• A:Answer This answer (non answer) is total waste. I have the same question. The person did not ask how much the cost just whether there is an extra cost to drill a hole. The answer is either YES or NO it's included, period. What you answered implies it depends on the type of wall. Please it's an exterior wall of a house, period. I can understand not quoting the price until the location is seen but you should have said YES or NO as the person didn't ask how much.

Q: QuestionDo they work with Verizon hot spot for the wifi

Asked 6 years ago by Ferge.

This question was asked about the related product: Wi-Fi Camera Install (Up to 2 Cameras)

• A:Answer Wireless cameras are a great way to provide peace of mind at home. While these should work on most WiFi networks, you would want to consult with Verizon to make sure this would be an appropriate option for this type of use. Often, Verizon data is limited so it is always best to look into these things first. Feel free to consult with our Geek Squad team as well by visiting https://www.bestbuy.com/services/remotesupport. Thank you!
