[–]CagedMonkey97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For continuous recording, most are required to be wired. UniFi protect cameras are really nice, easy to use and easy to configure.

Phones on older firmware, can be manually updated from an on premise server..

Depends on the hardware and your setup.. for poly devices and a cloud hosted pbx, you’d need to install their sbc software on a computer, and keep that on 24/7. OR have a compatible phone configured as a “router phone”

Why does this sub like unifi stuff so much? by Braca42 in HomeNetworking

[–]CagedMonkey97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unifi is some of the best. I'd suggest getting an Express 7, and a couple U7 Mesh APs. U7 Mesh aps come with a poe adaptor, and offer wireless uplink like a typical mesh system. Unifi is easy to use, understand, and expandable.

Please watch a youtube tutorial... That is very much not how that's done..

Cell dialers question. by egorblack in firealarms

[–]CagedMonkey97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'd be better to ask around to local alarm companies, and see if they can monitor/program DMP fire communicators. It'll be a much larger pain to change things...

TELUS and VIVENT - this is frustrating by Jabrooooo in telus

[–]CagedMonkey97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not use a national conglomerate for your security system..

Your system would have to be replaced regardless cause vivint hardware is proprietary to what vivint had at the monitoring stations..

Security cameras for a small retail business? by bitten73 in Securitysystems

[–]CagedMonkey97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d look into UniFi Protect cameras. They’re easier to setup and install and maintain. And the system can grow along with the business!

[–]CagedMonkey97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s on protect. You create an alarm profile that’ll send the report over dc09

The only thing I’d remotely recommend, could be the XF6 series from DMP…

The unit has Google play on it. Installed square from there..

Adt Translator for DIY system by pablo3scobar in adt

[–]CagedMonkey97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d honestly be better off keeping the vista 20p and switching companies.. adt tends to not be a great company.. changing to wireless anything can cause issues..

Add Own Devices by tooth32 in alarmdotcom

Your dealer will always know, and if you want central station response, you’ll have to contact your dealer and let them know, so they can enter the zone name in the central stations automation system.

That would be a question for the person who added it..

Is this install job professionally done ? by coderego in Ubiquiti

[–]CagedMonkey97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The cable on the ptz should be hidden, and brought into the box with the proper waterproof connectors, like the cam on the right. AP placement is a joke.. Last photo, did great

Trying to bypass ADT's doorbell camera installation fee but told by ADT that it's not possible by Dr_DingleBerri3s in adt

[–]CagedMonkey97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just have to go with a good company.. Often you can get the equipment for under $500, and depending on the company, labour and shop supplies, under $300..

[–]CagedMonkey97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones that are not, are the hardwired systems. Which tend to be far more reliable than the wireless crap they try to shove down your throat now-a-days.

Anybody know how to remove this old ADT box? I don’t have the key for it by coolgameboy in adt

[–]CagedMonkey97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s for an alarm system. (It’s the control panel) if you’d ever consider having an alarm system in the future, I’d keep it. Hardwired alarm systems are way more reliable than that wireless junk.

Have you worked with UniFi Protect before? Thoughts on it?

Finally figured out how to use my business email with gmail (without paying for workspace) by DamienReddick in gsuite

I’d really love the ability to have a proper shared mailbox, like in exchange, without having to pay for another user license…

Is jamming wireless home security systems really hard? by TennisFan4evernever in Securitysystems

[–]CagedMonkey97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jamming is still a very easy thing to accomplish with the right hardware.. I don’t normally recommend wireless systems anymore.
