Hit a pretty significant snag in this project. Apparently our only available internet providers are satellite. Hughes net, Viasat, and Starlink. I would still like to proceed with the POE Reolink 811a and NVR system. This system can still work without internet, just without remote phone viewing or push notifications correct?
Correct. Without an internet connection, local recording with an NVR is your only option since cloud recording won't work.

I’m guessing that I can connect the NVR to a TV and view my stored footage that way until I figure out our internet situation? Are there some form of controls (mouse) plugged into NVR to navigate on the TV? TIA
Yes the NVR will have HDMI and USB ports so you can use it just like a computer. You can also log into it from a computer/phone on the same network by browsing to its local IP and view live feeds and recordings that way.

Any Protect users (cloud key version) have any tips on downloading 8h clips of storage?

I find a few places that show you how to ssh in and use an on-device converter to output mp4, and I even found someone who wrote a pretty significant code that he shared from 3y ago, but I was curious if anyone here had a scenario where they needed 3x 8-hour clips to store and how they went about it?
