The simple solution here is to record to flash when wifi dies. Yes wired stuff is nice but half of these are consumer installed.

certainly record to flash, but you need to have notifications when the camera can’t be contacted/when storage would be theoretically getting full

that does open you up a little though: recording on device means the attacker can just destroy/steal the camera which is pretty easy because they, by definition pretty much, are in a place that’s trivial for an attacker to access
