Internet Provider for Security Cameras

Recommendations on affordable internet providers in Cincinnati to connect my Ring floodlight camera.

I have two side-by-side four families with a shared parking area in the back. The camera is mounted, and I was previously using a Internet connection from a tenant who requested the camera in the first place. Now that he has moved out, I need to provide the Internet connection myself. I am not comfortable asking any of the other tenants; I like to keep things separate. I received quotes from Altafiber and spectrum, averaging $60-$75 a month. I looked into T-Mobile and Verizon, but they are not offering it in that neighborhood. Are there any other internet resources you know of that could be $30-$50/m? Thanks!

@Amanda Palmer

I’m not much help with your Ring camera but thought I’d throw out another option that’s available. You would need a different camera so you’d have that upfront cost. Do an Amazon search for cellular security camera and you’ll get tons of them. Look for one that works on your providers network and get a SIM from them as an add on to your plan. Should only be $10-$20/mo. for service to the camera. If you really need a camera, the long term savings should pay for the Ring and you could hook that up at your house. Good luck!
