Many thanks for your message. I live in England but am thinking of emigrating to Scotland where its not so over crowded. Many thanks for your message which has raised a number of questions for me a non technical person.
1. What is an IP camera?
2. What is cat 5 wiring?
3. What is a PoE injector?
4. What sort of software are you referring to?
I was thinking of setting the camera up at the end of the garden not shooting from the bungalow. I live near Abingdon. As to budget, I would like to see what sort of costs are expected for such a project.
