There's a very good reason my cameras stay internal only and are blocked 100% from the internet. I can access them via the NVR with a Wireguard tunnel when I'm away from home if need be.
What cameras/setup do you use (or just recommend)?
Reolink has always been a good choice. Very good hardware for the price and they support onvif on most devices, which you can then use however you like.
Reolink, Ubiquiti, Dahua, Amcrest, and Wyze. Nice thing about a third-party NVR is you can mix and match whatever is cheapest or best for a given spot. I'm currently using iSpy Agent for the NVR as it's runs nicely in docker. Then I layer Codeproject.AI over top for person detection rather than just generic motion alerts. I'm using a 2090 Ti GPU (which is WAY overkill but I got it for free) to make the AI detection very fast.
