Thanks for that more-detailed explanation.? I sort of had the overall idea: there is some leakage otherwise when the microwave is on I wouldn't hear the buzzing when the cordless phone is nearby. ...I did get the two Raspberry Pi units switched over to PoE + wired.? The PoE part wasn't necessary but gave me a good excuse to clean up the equipment layout. ...Did have a ~4 second glitch this morning (darn!) but as only one camera was recording not telling me too much.? (One of the RPi/Motion? cameras looks at the 'left' half of the front yard and the other the 'right'.? Activity was only on the left side so can't compare to the non-existent right.) Updated hardware:? 2x RPi 4 + their micro-SD cards (though the new cards cloned from originals); USB camera (one each Pi), PoE CAT6 to an existing PoE Extender, Ethernet (not seeing any markings), PoE Injector, more mystery Ethernet cable, gigabit switch, more mystery cable to a RPi 5 with NVMe storage (we had tested the old NAS which used HDD).
