Manufacturer's Description

Linksys WVC54G Wireless G Internet Video Camera - Canada

The Linksys Wireless-G Internet Video Camera sends live video with sound 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 Video 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. The advanced MPEG-4 video compression produces a high-quality, high-framerate, up to 640x480 audio/video stream. The Internet Video 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 audio/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 SoloLink domain service (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 & Recorder utility lets you record the audio/video stream to your local hard drive, "live" or on a predetermined schedule. Let the Linksys Wireless-G Internet Video Camera help you keep tabs on your world.

Duration of ownership: 3 Months

Strengths: Nice picture, good sound

Weaknesses:Range is really weak. The software is annoying

Overall Evaluation: I bought the wireless internet camera to be able to watch my kids downstairs from my PC while I was working in my home office. It works for that purpose pretty well, however, its somewhat tough to get it installed and working. Also, sometimes when I reboot, the software can't recognize the camera, so I have to add it manually. For the price I paid though, overall I'm pretty happy, just a warning that the set up process isn't real simple.

Strengths: Decent quality, fairly easy setup, wireless connectivity.

Weaknesses:Sound either really bad or doesn't work at all.

Overall Evaluation: The video quality of this camera is quite decent in daylight. It has a few video formats so there are several ways to watch the video. It even has a static snapshot URL that I was able to hack together to embed the image in my own private website.The viewer software for Windows is decent and has an option of monitoring up to 9 cameras. This is actually making me consider getting more of these to keep an eye on other areas of the house.I don't need sound so I never bothered to figure it out, but it seemed that the mic was either really quiet or didn't work at all.

Duration of ownership: 1 Weeks

Strengths: Excellent distant access and motion detection emails are great.

Weaknesses:Hard to set up - took awhile

Overall Evaluation: I had a Linksys wireless router so thought this would be a snap to setup. Wrong. First, after four hours with tech support we figured out that the camera had an intermittent power supply. Took it back and exchanged for a new camera. Still had problems setting up but not as bad because I'd done so much with the first one. Took about 40 minutes with their tech support and then it worked like a hot **** In order to see your place remotely, you need to open a port in your router. Had no problem setting it up to send emails. I would recommend this camera to others, but if you're not a ten on the techie scale, be prepared to spend time on the phone with them.

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

Overall Evaluation: This is a very good Linksys brand wireless-G Internet Video Camera that can be used as a security camera without the mess of wires. With wireless routers prevalent, this is the way to go for cameras. The camera can be setup for viewing from any internet-enabled computer. Its a little expensive but worth the money for someone who needs it.
