Ah gotcha, so you're not trying to to live-view the feed on them. Thanks for the camera suggestion anyway, the brand still seems to be decent enough even if they don't support Linux.
Afaik the reolink homeassistant integration supports live feeds. The integration seems pretty solid with a lot of features, though I haven't tested them myself (I'll probably get one soon to replace mine).
I got a dahua put it on its own vlan. It is powered and connected via Poe. I stream an rtsp stream to frigate for detection and frigate restreams to home assistant.
If you want a WiFi solution and a constant life stream you may experience degraded performance on your other devices but you have to check youself.
I was considering POE as an option, and this camera does have an ethernet port (although I can't tell yet if that's only for configuration or if the video will also stream over it directly). I don't really need a constant stream and this camera also provides motion options so maybe it would only send video as needed (although during a heavy storm all of the cameras would probably fire at once).
