They work great in the garage, Lania, and you can point them out the front window to keep them from getting wet. Wyze does make a Water rated model for outside. They are all wireless for the internet, but wired for power. It does take a 2.4Ghz connection to your router. They are easy to set up and if you watch their video, it's a snap. If you have Xfinity you will have to ask them to set your wireless router up for 5 and 2.4 Ghz. They can do it remotely. The Ring and the Blink I believe have to be 2.4 Ghz too. Just like a remote garage door opener or thermostat.
I also have Wyze cameras on both my TV house and house up North. I have added other Wyze equipment too like solar panel to charge wireless cameras, wireless door lock that can be opened and closed from anywhere. I also installed a Wyze garage door system that lets me open and close the door from anywhere. System also alerts when door is opened or closed.
