Hi, I' new to this forum and looking for some advice.
I have started looking into getting CCTV (IP Cameras) for my house and how to implement utilising mostly equipment I already have. Initial thought are to go with one of the Swann IP Camera kits. I am after advice on my initial design, see link here --> https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=6569821788D9AAD6!946&authkey=!ADcav_QvVG8CfIc&ithint=file%2cpdf
The points I am having trouble with are below:
Can I connect the NVR to a LAN port on my Study WAP and will this affect network speed and/or security of CCTV. We stream a lot of Netflix / Stan etc and do a fair bit of online gaming and would not want to affect the performance of these devices.
My research has identified that I may need to look into VLANs to seperate the CCTV network from the "general" household network. Would I need to implement this at the Billion or the Thomson Switches? The Billion looks easy enough to do however the Thomson appears to be a bit trickier i.e. No GUI.
Prefer not to get another cable from garage to study installed as per my design. Can I run home network through the POE Switch? I suspect this has a similar answer to point 1?
Thanks for any advice you can provide.
