Preface: Setting Up Tapo C220 with Synology NAS for Recording

To keep an eye on my home and for future childcare needs, I recently picked up TP-Link’s popular network camera, the Tapo C220. My goal was to save the camera’s footage to my existing Synology DS920+ NAS for 24/7 recording and be able to access it anytime through a mobile app.
