    These cameras are NOT easy to set up; they didn't connect. There wasn't enough bandwidth to supprt them, so I changed my internet services in hopes that it would help. And so far, it still has not connected. I try troublshooting ideas with no connection still. I maybe returning them within 60 days of sale and cut my losses.

    Great camera with good resolution but it drains the battery. That I need to buy a solar panel so it will charge all the time.

    The only negative is battery life. We get about 3 months worth of charge and that is with using activity zones but we live on a busy street so that was kind of expected.
