Comment on Ideas for self hosted door bell
lucullus@discuss.tchncs.de 2 days agoDo the reolink door bells also provide their feature openly to othet systems like Home Assistent? I don’t wanna use their proprietary app. And do you have experience with the connection stability on Wifi? I don’t want the connection to randomly cut out. I can go with ethernet (as we get new cables on our door either way), but Reolink doesn’t seem to have an ethernet option.

First, I personally have not used it (but a security cam). But i have done some research.
Reolink Integration has Platinum Status on Home Assistant.
If you can set up Frigate then there seems to be 2 Way Voice Communication possible via the Home Assistant App.
There are a couple of Videos that show the process.
Reolink has at least one PoE Doorbell.
