Hi,<br>
I have had an IP camera for a few years and it worked well until
the UV filter jammed ruining the night vision. Did catch an
inquisitive person "looking for a party he was told was here"
falling into our fishpond in the dark :)<br>
<br>
WiFi cameras work, but tie up very significant bandwidth if you try
external motion detection - I used "motion" at one time.<br>
<br>
Almost all require a windows IE browser addin with much of the
security turned off to work so you can set them up ... then they may
be partially usable in Linux :( The ones I have all need a local
connection (i.e., wont accept a connection routed from another
network where I have Win VM's)<br>
<br>
Then a couple of win versions down the road you find yourself
maintaining old win VM's (XP in one case) for the purpose of
maintaining it :( <br>
<br>
I also have one with wifi and no night vision - waste of time.<br>
<br>
I also would really like to find one that just works with Linux ....<br>
