A resident may not use a facility’s local area network to connect the video monitoring device to the internet, unless the facility provides written consent to the resident. A facility that consents to a resident’s use of the network may impose conditions on the use to prevent a data breach and to limit the consumption of available bandwidth.

If a facility does not consent to a resident’s use of the network, the resident may arrange for access to the internet through an internet service provider. The facility may impose conditions on the installation of any wire, cable, or other technologies, required for internet access to:

(1) Prevent damage to the facility;

(2) Avoid the creation of a safety hazard; or

(3) Avoid the violation of any applicable building or electrical code.
