Hey,
Had a thought, figured this'd be a good place to ask -
TL;DR - does gateway performance matter at all when streaming video from a location with a connection as slow as 30/5?
I have this friend that owns a restaurant, and he streams about 50 cameras from his property (it's an outdoor restaurant - not all at once, of course, but about 30 of them do low-res 1.3mp cloud recording). He has one of those 30/5 Comcast business internet plans, unfortunately the fastest thing he can get in his area.
He got a Unifi USG v1 about 5 years ago, and I'm just wondering if how slow/fast this thing is makes a difference on a connection that slow? He can only upload at a max of 5Gbps from the place, so obviously not the best connection for streaming video *while* recording remotely, as well...
I don't really know the specs of the USG v1 but I don't imagine it's a powerhouse. Would putting something together like an amd64 running pfSense be beneficial, or would it not even matter?
I think I've got a spare Supermicro board with a Xeon 1220L-v2 and 32GB ram around here somewhere...
