Allow more than 30 minutes live streaming

The 30 minute cutoff for live streaming via the app, web etc, is too restrictive.

 

A lot of folks use these cameras permanently plugged in to power so the battery saving logic for this beomes moot. 

 

The option to stream more than 30 minutes could be part of a subscription as I understand that it's an extra load on the Netgear cloud servers. But nonetheless it should be an option for those who want to continuously monitor the live feed.

I would like to suggest for a future software update that the cameras should be able to live stream consistently and that there should be no limit to viewing "sessions" as this makes the cameras very unhelpful. Also, the two factor authentication is clumsy and a waste of time.

The main reason for Live Stream timing out after 30 minutes is in case a user forgets about it and drains the battery witch makes sense. If on AC it there should be an option for longer though.
