Hello, I just moved into a townhouse, and got something stolen the second day of moving. We did eventually get it back from a kid who “found it”, and the apartment complex is taking it seriously (has said that once they get a definitive ID that family is getting evicted) and they have cameras everywhere outside, but I’d like to supplement it with my own cameras and am looking for recommendations. I’d like to have a doorbell camera for the front, and there’s no existing doorbell so it would have to be battery/solar powered. I also have a patio with a sliding door and would like to be able to cover that area. I saw the Panasonic home hawk on Amazon, and I like the idea of a window mounted camera, but our only window to the patio area is the sliding door, so it would have to be totally wireless as well, though I’m not married to the idea of it being window mounted. I’m still trying to decide whether or not to get any interior cameras.

I would also like to have the cameras blocked from the internet, but also connected to LAN and a VPN so I can access them from my home wherever I am. A doorbell camera with a chime I can put somewhere inside would also be nice.
