Help! Wifi Monitor for camper

[3_dog_nights]

We were planing to use a Guardzilla camera that we had. Now their customer support is telling us that it won't work. We travel with two elderly dogs. When we have to leave the RV, they stay in their crate.
We want to be able to monitor them. Loud noise, quick rise in temp, etc. Is their a camera that works, either thru the campground wifi, or on a cellular hot spot? we leave in a week and we're frantic trying to find something.

Do you think it would work with a hotspot piggybacking Verizon. (slower)
and where do you get a Yi?

Should work fine.

Thanks for the info guys! My cellular company says it's compatible with their hotspot. So I ordered it from them. If it doesn't work they can take it back.

Sorry I missed model number question.

Indoor version

The biggest problem (well, the only problem) I had at the s&b was the dang router going down, so I put a timer on it to shut it off and back on once a day. The Nest itself worked without a hitch.

It should. What we do is: we use the same network name and password as our home network and password. That way your phone connects to the nest without entering network and password. It is moved to the sticks/bricks when we get home. It doesn't know/matter if it is at home or in the RV.

Have a hotspot from US Cellular, piggybacks Verizon where we are planning to use it. Will that combo work? and a model # for the nest?

I don't want to pay for a babysitter, but I want something that works!

[2oldman]

Ok, you want something cheap.

Nest cameras work over wifi. Yours should, but gets poor reviews for failure to work as promised.
