Comment on Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras?
spaghettiwestern@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoTP-Link (which are cheap but so unreliable I had to add smart switches to reset them when they stop working), Foscam and Dahua. Duhua is by far the best. All of them record to a local server running Home Assistant and Frigate.
TP-Link
I hope its not one of the 32 TP-Link cameras that have unpatched auth flaws allowing malicious actors to reset the admin credentials in them.. This is a local exploit, so you’re probably okay, but these exploits could be used in concert with others to compromise your security/privacy.
The cameras have no Internet access at all. Someone would already need access to my network for this vulnerability to be a problem.
Friend don’t let friends get TP-LINK they am never updated their products properly and their products are full of known CVEs

I really need to set up frigate. Been procrastinating for months 😐

Frigate is a marvel. Setting it up and tweaking it does take time but once done it requires almost no maintenance (at least in my experience) and is close to flawless. It’s only had 1 false alert in the last year and that was caused by a spiderweb on the camera. I wish all my applications were as trouble free.

Make sure you fill out a bug report.
