Sorry off topic but I gotta know, We need a home security system with cameras that will let us know when something is going on. Trouble is the property has no internet or wifi.. What say you great thinkers?

Game trail cameras and a Louisville slugger?
-
Oh,, and the property is 4 hours drive away. my Louisville slugger won't reach that far.
-
Not my idea, but found on the Internets...
Place a sign near the driveway that says "Smile, you are on camera,".
Have few game/trail cameras hidden in the trees. Place one that's close to driveway, so it takes pictures of license plates.
Several few fake and obviously placed security cameras on utility poles.
Add motion lights.

If you have cellular coverage there are options.

Kuna, we’ve had it two years and it’s flawless. It’s little pricey but with this type of equipment you pay for quality.
-
Keep in mind how secure whatever system you get may or may not be.

If you don't have cell service you may be needing to get satellite internet.
-
That was going to be my question, do you have cellphone cover?
-
If you have internet at the location, Ring is a great system.
-
What are your goals?
To stop something before it happens?
To catch whoever does something?
To witness something happening even though you can't get there in time, and police might not show up in time?
If you suspect that something will happen at that location, I would go with a multi-layered approach of cameras, lights, sirens to scare off would be trespassers. Then, a way to contact authorities if you believe they can arrive in a reasonable time period, etc.

If you have cell coverage, you could get a WiFi hotspot. Then place a few Wyze webcams around. They are cheap, and can be set to record when there is motion or sound. And send you an email or text to alert you when there is motion or sound. There is no monthly fee for those either.
The only monthly fee would be the WiFi hotspot and if you add that to an existing cell phone plan, it isn't too bad.
