LAN Streaming and Capture Options?
wireless-security-cameras

I have a MotionEyeOS server and have all my cheap IP cameras sharing video streams on that. I was just told by support ring cameras can't have the video feed captured locally. I thought at one point I found an article about being able to do this.Does anyone know if this can be done. I don't need or want my video stored on the internet. I also don't want my security cameras to require an internet connection to be usable.Anyone know how or if this can be done?

    Hi @HoutzRing. Ring Security Cameras and Ring Doorbells utilize a wifi connection in order to communicate with the Ring App which is where you can access the Live View and view previously recorded videos with a valid [Ring Protect plan](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001671383-General-Information-on-Ring-Protect-Subscription-Plans) subscription. If you're looking for security cameras that do not utilize wifi and have local storage, Ring Cameras and Doorbells may not be the best option for these preferences as they do require a valid internet connection and utilize cloud storage as part of the Ring Protect plan. I hope this helps answer your questions. :)
