What options do I have that won’t totally break the bank that will allow 2 3 outdoor cameras that store locally to a NVR or desktop computer that will allow me to bring up at least 24hrs of past video recordings when at the NVR or desktop at home and allow me to occasionally view live video through an app on my cell. Hi Joe, to allow 2 3 outdoor cameras to store locally to a NVR without eating up you bandwidth, you have two best options available. One is the wireless security system, like Reolink RLK4 210WB4 with 1080p high definition /product/rlk4 210wb4/, which frees you from messy cablings. Or you can choose a PoE security system with easy set up, such as Reolink RLK8 410B4 /product/rlk8 410b4/. Both options release you from the worries about using your bandwidth. The NVR and the cameras can automatically connect to each other on its own proprietary network and start to communicate with each other without consuming your data.
