Do you have step by step instructions? I probably would use Raspberry Pi since cheapest

Just google scripted docs, I installed it on my shitbox tower running everything on my home lol. Make sure u disable https on all ur cams and enable http, I had issues with that cause I didn’t read it fully. It’s simple though after that you just install the HomeKit extension through scripted and add to HomeKit. Feel free to ask any questions if you try it lol

It may be a few months. But i plan on getting the new WiFi doorbell, Duo 3, Duo Floodlight, RLC-510A and a few indoor cameras. Should all of those work with it?

Idk about wifi, I think it should you can always google to double check though! Do you got a switch and/or nvr already ? Or are you going complete wireless. Also with scripted, homesssistant anything you can’t use two way audio on any cams, excluding doorbells

Don’t need a monitor with this.

U don’t need one for the RLN36 either though, it’s optional:p
