It’s cool and I get that there’s a certain element of hacker mentality, but given the seriousness of the use case, all I can think of is why?
Do you really want to rely on some firmware hack of a shitty D-Link camera to be the only thing standing between a robber and your stuff? You can buy a proper IP cam from Amcrest, Dahua or TP-Link for a few hundred bucks, wire it into PoE and have at least a fighting chance of identifying who stole your stuff. Anything less than a high quality camera placed in exactly the right place, and all you will accomplish is snapping a really blurry picture of your things being stolen, speaking from experience.
