@RobotToaster @GreatAlbatross oh man, X10 was such junk. Terrible reliability, expensive, clunky. Always awkward as the units plugged into receptacles with little positioning flexibility, and a restrictive ecosystem with inflexible players tying it up in patents for so long. A couple of hundred bucks I blew there was totally wasted …about 20yrs.

@keyez @OminousOrange I’ve got the reolink doorbell cam too, but just block the WAN at the router, and unblock when I’m out of town, which is pretty rare these days. Seems to function pretty well that way.
