Bullet type is with 4.0mm lens whereas dome type is 2.8mm. Understand 2.8mm has wider viewing angle. What other consideration should I take into account in deciding a bullet or dome? My usage is for residential, 2 story terrace, to monitor car porch, back lane, balcony and internals like dining and living hall.
I have 4 units of this still in box. It's bullet with 2.8mm lens. Would not recommend 5Mp with 2.8mm lens. For aesthetic normally will used dome for indoor.4k bullet

is resolution more than 2Mp recommended if your TV/monitor/laptop/etc screen is max 1080p only ?
and for basic wired cctv monitoring..direct save to disk ( i.e no network, online notification, online viewing). is the connection like this for poe cctv (no need router ?)
also anyone have experience buying cheap nvr/dvr recorder from taobao? can the interface language be changed to english ?
Even though your TV 1080p if you used 5Mp or higher when you zoom in can see more details. Just buy a 4 channel POE NVR, forget about the POE switch. No need internet/router still can view/playback and you only need 4x cat6 to view on TV locally. Taobao you need ask seller if have English GUI.

I'm looking for total wireless solution as well, meaning free of cables from power and networking... Only need to install 2 outdoor cameras...
Looking at the Eufycam solution, but it seems there might be connection issue with certain model of routers specifically the WiFi 6 routers...
I think you can disable band steering in Wifi 6 router to solve the issues. Didn't know Eufy came out with so many new models and the 2K quality looks great.

the typical ones... laptops, phones, tv, tv box, air purifier, gaming console... even my iPhone and MacBook Air already on WiFi 6...
I think should be ok. Why don't you backup the router settings as a precaution then try disable band steering to test it out. If have serious issue just roll back to current configuration.

I am currently using HIK Apps viewing my cctv remotely.Why after several view of cctv acros 2 weeks, it wont b able to view cctv anymore.I will need to reboot my DVR b4 i could review it again.
Is there a max bandwith for viewing it in apps?
Under auto maintenance, set it to reboot every week or two weeks, settled!
Seems the Dahua DVR is only 5MN not actual 5MP as for the HIK it's very confusing to me about their 4K Lite. I think you need double check with seller if it's recording at real 5MP. But the Dahua have Wizsene while the HIK only ordinary motion detection. Tough choice
Is this set better than the hikvision / dahua? Which one is better in your opinion? Tq
Wrong person to ask, Reolink is not a brand I would recommend for commercial used. SOHO still acceptable. But if your cafe is well lit the Reolink does seems a good choice compare to the earlier two, because ip camera still outperform hd analog even though both have same megapixel. Anyway, try get Dahua or HIK POE kit if price not much difference.

just wondering if residential the Dahua brand is sufficient?
Many business premises, factories and big projects also used Dahua/HIK so why not for residential? But it also depends on which camera you choose because their range is from entry level to high end professional models.
