camera bandwidth and home network
Hi all-
Does running my two surveillance cameras through my home network affect the available bandwidth of other devices on that network? My cameras are IP and wired.
Thanks,
Mark

Yes, all devices on the same network share the network bandwidth. However, the bandwidth generated by two IP cameras with normal settings should be functionally insignificant for a typical wired Ethernet network (especially a Gigabit one).
You probably want a gigabit LAN nowadays anyway, switches are cheap...
