Anyone got a good guide for beginners here?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

Prob not a beginner project, which is why people buy cloud based.

By the time you get everything going you will no longer be a beginner. If you’re ready for that kind of undertaking check out MactelecomNetworks on YouTube.

Just keep in mind that you're on lemmy and the people here tend to be very enthusiastic about things like this this that may or may not be very doable or necessary for the average individual

Tailscale (which is open source) can host an entry point for a home VPN for you. Better security would be to host it yourself, which they also have instructions on how to set up, but even having them host is a security upgrade from using standard cloud cameras.

Pretty sure tailscale isn't open source in any meaningful way.
