    I read several reviews prior to purchasing this bundle and most mentioned the poor/iffy wifi signal between the cameras and NVR. Well, it's true. I spent a good while trying to dial in the signal with camera placement and different antennas. I have my NVR in my upstairs bedroom closet and the cameras are outdoor about 15 and 20 feet away from the NVR respectively, going through a couple walls each. Nothing I did gave me a reliable signal and the cameras would constantly freeze up or completely drop. I ended up hard wiring the cameras over CAT5 directly to my network. Now it works smooth and reliably. I think this system is more meant for a small indoor setup like a convenience store.

    This camera has great NV and it’s wireless connectivity is decent. Clarity is good. Comes with plenty of power cable. Cons are how glitchy the app is. I’ve had to reconnect my device on the app numerous times. BEST ADVICE: Have the NVR qr code saved in your photos on your phone. When losing connectivity with your device while away, the only way to reconnect is to have that long code.

    The only problem is that you need a dedicated power line to hook up.

    A system that is very easy to setup. Delivers good quality video. I aimed the camera at my entrance door. Fast forward may skip the video section that someone entering my house.

    Easy start up, but as some have commented the range from the camera to the base unit is not good. I had to move the base unit to a central location in the house and remotely extend the ethernet to get both cameras to work.

    My only beef was the fact that it was advertised as wireless, and while the radio signal is, the power is not.
