Any suggestions for a Wi-Fi ipcam I can use as a baby monitor?

Be careful of what camera you get. My wife was breast feeding our child and people started talking to her. It was an “Amcrest” camera. Amcrest is actually a Chinese company and their firmware has holes the size of the Grand Canyon. If you confine it to your local network it would probably be fine but I just wanted to give you a heads up to DYOR on the security offered by each option.
Which amcrest camera did you have? If you have the pro based cameras you can disable P2P and DLNA (I believe DLNA is disabled by default)
