1. Does this have a electrical power cord or does it run off the USB?2. One of the reviews leads me to ask if this is WiFi/wireless?Thanks!

It is powered by the USB connection and doesn't require an additional power supply. It is not wireless and must be connected with the USB cable.

USB. As far as I know it doesn't work wirelessly. If it does I haven't discovered that option yet.

Interesting concept, but I don't have a wireless PS/2. My opinion would be to use software such as MaxiVista and network the computers. USB has power restrainst, lag from, so good luck......ect

It always needs external power. It has a 3.5" hard drive, whereas the one's that run only on USB have a 2.5" (laptop hard drive). That is the main difference.

No. It has to be plugged into the wall. The USB hookup is fine, but not necessary. You get two cables: 1. The Power Cord 2. The USB Connector I rarely use #2, but #1 is a must. =) Hope this helps. ~Mick

It is strictly windows only, and is usb only, not wifi. I still have mine and have never used it, because the vendor was so dogey about returns, it wasn't worth returning. Also it is really big, and takes up a lot of space, and the replacement cartridges are like $70 dollars. I am trying to unload it on cragslist.

I was a little disappointed that while it does have wifi, the wifi is only to download to mobile devices. You need the usb cord that is included to download to a laptop or desk computer. I love this camera, by the way.

This laptop has a total of 3 USB ports. Two of them are USB 3.0 located on the right side. And one USB 2.0 on the left side. I always have a mouse and a USB WiFi adapter plugged with no problem. I hope this helps you out!

It gives off its own wifi signal. However, 1) it does not have a battery, so you have to have somewhere to plug it up and 2) you will only have access to the USB drive attached to it, not the Internet. The only way to access the Internet via this device is to connect the device to an existing wired or wireless connection.

Power source only. You use a wired connection to set it up, then it is wireless.

There's a USB port but no built-in wifi, etc. Also, it needs to be plugged in to household current so it's not mobile itself

The device has its own power cord. I do not think it is designed to draw power from USB but only to power the USBs in the device itself. Thus the power cord.

It is powered off the USB bus. I use an adapter plugged into 110 volts to insure constant adequate power (because some USBs have more power than others).

That's what I received, wireless...but its not 100% wireless, it still requires power.

Steven it is USB powered but comes with a second USB cable to provide extra power if required. In my experience it seems to be needed. Regards John Docherty.

Apparently it is powered exclusively from the USB port itself, not too certain on wattage however. There is a s/pdif out and in, and a 3.5mm line in (I use a red/white composite cable converter to play any console games). I believe the software that runs it is strictly PC, but I have no certainty that it will function in this manner.

It comes with a power cable, yes. USB. Doesn't have to be plugged in to use. Just warning you mine stopped working after 6 months. Gonna try to mail it in for replacement. Turns on, but the blutooth stopped connecting to any of my devices.
