I was working from home at around 11:30 when I got a notice that my VPN had gone down

5. Interfering with communications and lawful video on premises has got to be illegal. There is a serious preventive though

Use wired video cameras, cabled by Ethernet into a cheap brick computer connected directly to optical fibre broadband. Keep the Ring camera as a decoy. Set up the wired cameras to activate and stream to the cloud (not to Ring) as soon as wifi goes down. Have it powered by UIPS (uninterrupted power supply. Can buy supplies with battery protection for some number of minutes.) The optical fibre should be armored until it goes into the ground or out to the power pole.

Burglars use the same technique. They have a handheld device that jams the wifi and G4/G5 phone frequencies with noise.

For extra video protection, add a system as above, but doesn't wifi or ethernet. Records internally for later retrieval. That way its power can't be cut and there's no cable to cut.

I'm no security expert but sometimes I indulge in mental exercises like the above.
