This is very valuable information and I appreciate it. Do you guys do networking support at all? Is there a number I can call if something doesn’t work out?

We do have a paid network support service. Unfortunately, there are simply too many variations in devices and networks to be able to give this service away or support it alongside our other equipment, but we do have professionals on-staff that take paid calls. You can purchase scheduled blocks of time via this page: http://www.apexcctv.com/t-Phone_Support.aspx.
Let us know if we can help you out!
