I’m looking at dusting off my motion setup. It was an old setup to monitor what my pets are doing in the house with a webcam.

However, I need cameras outside to monitor my gardens and the webcams are not really usefull for that (for one, the’re not waterproof and USB cams)

I try to look for stand alone cameras, but can’t find a good test of them. (probably user error) Any tips on good, safe, cameras for outside? (pref poe, wifi when it can’t be avoided, not battery powered)

Thanks in advance

    They gave POE cameras that will just work with an Ethernet cable (although they gave weird POE requirements). Their USB powered ones are wifi connected.

    Source: I’ve had them for years and am happy with the setup.
