I’m in the market for 5GHz security cameras that support ONVIF. So far, I’ve come across these options:
Does anyone have thoughts on these models or other recommendations?
I need to stick with 5GHz because the 2.4GHz band is nearly unusable at my home due to congestion. I’ve tested it using WiFiMan on my phone and found that 2.4GHz has frequent ping spikes up to 2000+ms and occasional disconnects. In contrast, the dual-band SSID gives me a consistent 10-15ms ping with solid download speeds throughout the house.
The shorter range of 5GHz isn’t an issue since I get an RSSI above -50 dBa in every area of my home. Unfortunately, a wired setup isn’t feasible because it would require extensive interior work that would need repairing if I move out.
Any advice or alternative camera suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
