Looking for a "dumb" IP camera (feddit.de)

Not sure if there’s a better community to ask this, but I’m trying to find a good quality non-cloud-based IP camera that I can feed into a standardized video recording software over a network. Ideally, it would be Wi-Fi capable as well.

Everywhere I’ve looked, they all reach out to a third-party and go through an app or are through junction box and are analog-based.

Does anyone know if an option like this exists?

I got generic reolink ipcams and put them on their own VLAN, then put firewall rules on my router to block them but let my NVR through. I plugged them all into an unmanaged POE switch which then goes up to my managed switch which handles the VLANs

The cameras have ONVIF/RTSP so it'll work with BlueIris or other NVR software

You want Reolink cameras.

There is openipc which is an alternative firmware for cameras with a specific chipset; fully open source but finding the right cameras is as rare as finding gold; it would be a great choice though; fuck i miss wyze cam v2s.

4 years later and I'm still super happy about my 4K PoE Amcrest cameras. This is the brand I would recommend!
