More Than Security: The DIY Oplink Home Security Review
Do you want to have a medical alert system for Grandma? Or do you need a home security system for your kids’ safety?
If you can’t decide on which to choose, you can actually buy two systems to get both ends covered. However, there’s a chance you’d be spending twice, too. It is also inconvenient for you to monitor two systems at the same time or to have too many devices at home.
Fortunately, there’s Oplink Home Security System. It vows to monitor your home security as well as Grandma’s medical safety.
Oplink’s Plug-Activate-N-Play feature allows set up in just a few minutes. It’s relatively easy for a DIY kit.

It actually takes a short time for the system to start working. After you have completed the setup, the cameras will start acquiring and sending live feeds to your smartphone. When the system senses something out of the ordinary, it notifies your phone. It rings the siren at home, too.
