> the bandwidth involved and the requirement for working internet connectivity makes remote storage seem really costly and unattractive to me

If the camera doesn't have internet connectivity, I can't see what it's seeing when I'm away from home. That's a requirement, as I have already said.

I can see my cameras just fine when I'm away from home.

But they also keep recording while my internet connectivity goes out.

My cameras in aggregate also produce a lot more data than my internet connection could support-- about 180mbit/s during the day-- but that presets no problem for remote viewing because I only few a couple cameras at a time remotely. (I also can view the much lower bitrate substreams, while the full resolution is recorded locally.)

Can I ask what solution you use? ZoneMinder or something else?
