[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3922177, member: 5412"] You also remedy the wifi situation losing its connection by using a UPS backup if the power fails by a thief pulling the electric meter which is common practice to shut down a wired system. We keep our wifi system online with the wifi router and base unit for the wifi cams plugged into a UPS. I've killed power to the home, and we still get alerts just like normal on our phones thousands of miles away. We do have the SD cards in the cams as well. Of course, a wired system could be backed up the same way, but wifi systems are so easy and inexpensive to install and maintain these days. The technology is growing day by day. You can talk on them, start sirens, have internal flood lights, color night vision, 1080P, and so on. I just can't see going to a wired system anymore, but I'm not in the business. Like you said, we have cams looking at cams to make sure someone doesn't slip behind one and pull it down, also use cellular game cameras for a secondary backup to monitor the property outside the home and possible access areas that are unreachable unless one has one heck of a ladder.
