Reolink doorbell cameras, such as the Video Doorbell WiFi, help improve everyday security, convenience, and awareness around your front entrance. Here are some of the most common ways homeowners use them:

- Front door security: Monitor visitors and suspicious activity in real time to help deter break-ins and unwanted guests.

- Package protection: Keep track of deliveries and receive alerts when packages arrive or someone approaches your doorstep.

- Two-way communication: Speak with visitors, delivery drivers, or guests remotely using built-in two-way audio.

- Family & child safety: Let family members check who is outside before opening the door for added peace of mind.

- Evidence recording: Save clear video footage with timestamps to review incidents or support police and insurance claims if needed.

- Choose the right location: Install the video doorbell beside your front door at about 48 inches from the ground for a clear view of visitors and packages.

- Check your power option: Wired models can connect to existing doorbell wiring. WiFi versions need stable wireless coverage near the entrance. PoE models use a single Ethernet cable for both power and data.

- Download the Reolink App: Install the Reolink App on your phone to manage setup, live view, alerts, and recordings.

- Connect the doorbell to your network: Open the app and scan the QR code on the device. Follow the in-app instructions to connect to WiFi or PoE.

- Mount the bracket: Use the included mounting template to drill holes and secure the mounting plate near your front door.

- Attach the video doorbell: Snap or screw the doorbell onto the bracket and make sure it is firmly locked in place.

- Adjust the viewing angle: Use the included wedge kit if needed to better capture visitors, driveways, or porch areas.

- Test the system: Ring the bell, check two-way audio, verify notifications, and confirm clear day/night video before finishing installation.

Yes. Brands such as Reolink offer doorbells that save to a microSD card or a home recorder. They give live view and motion alerts for free. You only pay a one-time hardware cost unless you later choose cloud backup.

No. Most Reolink video doorbell cameras work fully without a monthly subscription. You can access live view, motion alerts, two-way audio, and video playback directly through the Reolink App without paying recurring fees.

Reolink doorbell cameras support flexible local storage options, including microSD cards, NVR systems, Home Hub storage, and even FTP or NAS storage on certain setups.

Many homeowners prefer Reolink because it delivers motion recording and remote playback through the app without requiring any mandatory monthly subscription fees.

It depends. Some doorbell cameras do not record continuously. Instead, they only start recording when they are triggered by motion or an event. Once triggered, they send a notification to your phone, ensuring you do not miss the recorded clip.

However, the Reolink video doorbell PoE/WiFi supports 24/7 recording. You can set Reolink Video Doorbell PoE/WiFi to record 24/7 continuously using a micro SD card (not included) or an NVR.

It depends. Most wireless doorbell cameras typically require a Wi-Fi connection to function effectively. Wi-Fi allows the doorbell camera to connect to your home network and transmit data, such as video footage and alerts, to your smartphone or other devices.

However, PoE doorbell cameras do not necessarily need Wi-Fi for their primary functions. POE cameras receive both power and data through an Ethernet cable connected to a POE switch or injector.

If you use Reolink doorbell cameras without an Internet connection, the doorbell camera can still detect motion/person and record videos to the SD card. However, it cannot send alerts to your mobile devices, and you cannot live view it.

If the chime is connected to the doorbell, it will chime when the doorbell is pressed, regardless of the Internet connection.

You can install the doorbell camera at entry points of your property, such as the front door. It is recommended to mount the camera 1.2 meters (approximately 4 feet) above the ground. A 15° wedge is included to help you set up or adjust the camera to the optimal angle.
