In the US, download speeds can be decent (although we lag behind much of the developed world in that, too), but upload speeds are pretty slow. Therefore, most people won't be able to upload quality footage for a single camera without severely reducing their internet browsing speed.Ĭloud-based recording can be a wonderful solution if you have one or two cameras and where quality or reliability is not crucial, such as using one for a baby monitor, but it probably isn't possible for any additional IP cameras.įor internet speeds, there is an upload speed and a download speed. The average internet upload speed is 10 Megabytes per second (10Mbps). Depending upon the speed of your internet for corporate internet connections like a T1 Line you might be able to record, but this varies according to how much you are using the internet, and how much other people in your geographic area are using it. The resolution is low quality and variable.Įven with the fastest residential internet connection, you are going to get terrible results from cloud-based recording. There's no option for that with cloud-based recording. When a DVR or NVR has an issue it "self heals" by rebooting and clearing the issue. If your internet service provider has a disruption of service or if your router starts misbehaving, you won't be recording. Typically these types of cameras connect via WiFi which can be easily blocked or have interference.īecause your internet is tied to your power, you won't have the ability to use a battery backup to keep your security surveillance system running if the power goes out.
And, well, that's not even close to a good idea.
