Wifi Cam

[DDflamingo]

Looking for a long range wifi cam I can put out in my coop.. not wanting to spend a fortune. A good camera for a good price.
Any suggestions??

I have 3 different Amcrest ones, and they work pretty well and are affordable - https://amcrest.com/ip-cameras/outdoor-ip-cameras.html

Why type of range does it have from a wifi extender, or router?

We use Arlo Pro 2 for the coop. The coop is about 250 ft from the camera base station and it works beautifully. Not sure what type of long range you need. They also make one that doesn’t need Wi-Fi signal and can be used anywhere but I don’t have any experience with that model

Oh thank you, and for giving me a distance. They aren't that far.
We have chicks hatching and it's very distracting having to go out there. Lol.

Holy Grail (according to me and other chicken keepers).
