yes that is my plan now. we will see if it will work. I don't have the cameras but that kit comes with all 4k cameras and my plan was to turn the resolution down as where they are located it doesn't need to be 4k With upgrading the garage power the wire has already been trenched over as the old owner use to have a hot tub right beside the garage. he took the hot tub but left all the wiring. my plan was just to use that wiring to run into the panel on the garage and upgraded the panel in the garage to run 240v then re hook the old hottub wiring up in the house onto a 240 circuit. so there will be no trenching. if there was going to be trenching I would just wait till then to install lines anyways, but like I said at this point in time there shouldn't be any trenching that will happen.

Hey guys, Im new here and new to home ownership and security systems,. My wife and myself bought a house in our town that has a stupid crime rate and we want to attempt to protect our house with alarm and camera system. we have an alarm system picked out that we are going to go with but for camera system I am still not 100% decided. but am thinking about going with https://www.lorextechnology.com/security-camera-systems/4k-ultra-hd-ip-nvr-security-camera-system-with-8-ip-cameras/LNR1649KXB-1-p With that being said there will be two cameras I want to put on the detached garage. Now I don't want to burry the cat5 cables from the house to the garage or run them from roof to roof. My question is that I came up with an idea of install a wifi extender in the garage(wifi in garage isn't the best anyways) with a network port on it, then I was going to run it to a POE switch, which in turn the cameras would connect to. Would that allow me to connect the NVR to the cameras so they can be viewed in house from the NVR or from the mobile app? Thanks in advance.

Thank you that makes it much easier to under stand and I will have to have a look at the breaker in the house to see how it is set up. That is once I get it labeled properly cause the old owner made a mess of things and the labels. Yes I think that will be the way I will try first as I can get the adapter locally. If not would be a big deal as yes I could find some where to us them in the house, as it is a larger house and the coverage in the basement isn't the greatest in some areas, then move onto the nanostations.

the garage is powered off the main breaker panel in the house but it also as its own breaker panel in the garage that will be upgraded and switched in the near future as the garage panel is not capable to run 240v as it is right now

Okay so let me just get this straight: using Ubiquiti NanoStation M5's that would be plugged into the nvr in the house then just the cameras plugged into a poe switch in the garage and that would allow the nvr to pick up the cameras on a dedicated network that would only be available to the nvr?

okay thank you. and the router is located maybe 100ft from the garage with a window between the too

I don't want to bury the cables for numerous reason. 1) just don't want to go through the hassle of it as there is a concrete patio that is between the house and the garage I would have to get under 2) if there is ever issues with the cable then im digging again 3) if we ever move then im buying new cables. As for the wifi it would only be 2 maybe three cameras that would be on the garage. The rest would be hardwired to the nvr as they would be on the house. Also the cameras on the garage would be set to record only when motion is detected as they would be facing a back alley/storage area so not a lot of traffic back there. so there should be too much of an issue there. Even I got 720p video there I would be happy as they would be set close to what they are monitoring. But setting up that system as I described would work for the garage cameras? Thanks
