Manufacturer's description

Linksys Wireless-G Internet Home Monitoring Camera

The Linksys Wireless-G Internet Home Monitoring Camera sends live video through the Internet to a web browser anywhere in the world! This compact, self-contained unit lets you keep track of your home, your kids, your workplace -- whatever's important to you.

Unlike standard "web cams" that require an attached PC, the Internet Home Monitoring Camera contains its own web server, so it can connect directly to a network, either over Wireless-G (802.11g) networking, or over 10/100 Ethernet cable. Choose either MPEG-4 or Motion JPEG video compression for a high-quality, high-framerate, up to 640x480 video stream.

The Compact Internet Home Monitoring Camera's unique form-factor and wireless connectivity allows you to mount it on a wall nearly anywhere, or slip it into its included stand for desktop use. Once it's connected to your home network, you can "see what it sees" from any PC in the house, while the video stream is secured from the outside world, hidden behind your Router. If you want the video to be visible from outside your home network, you can open an appropriate port on the Router, and then create password protected accounts to manage access to the camera, or leave it wide open for the world to see. The TZO domain service (one-year trial sign-up included) lets you access your camera using an easy-to-remember "name", even if your home Internet connection uses a dynamic IP address.

You can also turn on Security Mode, which tells the camera to send a message with a short video attached to up to three email addresses whenever it detects motion in its field of view. You can then log onto the live video stream if the situation warrants. The included Viewer and Recorder utility lets you record the audio/video stream to your local hard drive, "live" or on a predetermined schedule.

Windows 2000/XP/Vista

Fantastic WiFi Camera
Reviewer: JJL_SAW from Eugene, OR on Mar 26, 2008
10 out of 14 found this review helpful

I am an IT manager and installed this at work because I wanted a descent view via the internet without paying hundreds of dollars. The setup was pretty easy using the software search function from a wireless notebook. I later included 128 WEP which also went well because I am using other Linksys router, AP...I plan on adding 3 or 4 more to complete our camera arangement.
One Note, We have a fast comcast feed which no doubt makes a huge difference.

Not bad - good value
Reviewer: Joe from PA on Jul 12, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

It's a good value based on price vs. features. The picture is clear. The setup was easy if you know how to set up wireless devices. The wizard CD did not find the camera on my network, but I could manually set it up after some Google-ing. The ftp/email on motion detection feature is useful, although it is too senstive to lighting changes if you have it pointing outside. You end up with lots of e-mails with no real motion. Also don't point it at a tree or you will get an e-mail every time the wind blows!
