Does THIS CAMERA work 100% over general wifi inhouse without excuses of interfere etc &amp; does it operate in REAL TIME like a regular monitor or delay?

Works great. Never an issue with lost connection or interference. There is a very, very slight delay. Maybe a second or two. This is not noticeable, however, unless your are in the room with the monitor viewing the iPad/iPhone. We are very pleased with this purchase.

I need a camera to watch a room in my house when im away. I would like to be able to view it from my iPhone or computer. I would like for it to record like dvr but it has to be very discrete. I have wifi at home. I this camera the one I should choose? If possible 2 rooms would be ideal.

There is no built-in WiFi in the camera. You would need to go through a computer for live streaming.

There is no interference either way. Two different technologies. The only interference I received is from other wireless cameras. This happens occasionally when I'm driving, not when I'm backing up.

Hi Lisa. Basically you need to give your wifi router "permission" to have your camera transmit past its firewall. It's a little technical. You have to "open" a port using port forwarding. There may be a YouTube video that describes this using your brand of router.

Hi, it provide feature to do monitoring with camera using WiFi. I has 3 options - direct, indoor, outdoor. I checked direct and indoor and galaxy s3 and ipad (iOs7) - works great. You have to download everio sync2 soft. Then do some simple setting with you camera (connect to home router for indoor) and you can see camera image on your device. You can start recording and make picuters from phone or tablet. Very nice feature. For outdoor monitoring - you should have external static IP. Didn't try this option.

NO WIFI needed.The camera communicates directly to the monitor, I am very satisfied with mine and use it to monitor my driveway.

First, I'm in the market to buy this camera, I don't own one. I'm not trying to complain about the posts so far, but I'm wondering if you are simply using the auto mode when indoors, or have you tried other modes (Indoor Mode), ISO speeds, etc that the camera comes equipped with? If the images are "VERY POOR", what exactly have you tested? (Others report indoor images have been good).

It's an infrared remote - has nothing to do with WiFi. You point it at the camera, press the button, and it either works or it doesn't. The camera has to be set for remote control mode. Even then, this model seems to arrive broken a fair percentage of the time, and won't work no matter what you do.

I didn't notice any delays or lack of response. It is used for a computer mostly, but I tested with an iPhone hdmi adapter going to that monitor and it seemed just fine. I didn't do any high action videos though.

Wifi works fine once I worked with ESET anti-virus who showed my how to create a rule to allow the camera access. I knew it was a anti-virus problem since I turned off the firewall and it worked fine. Once its set up all you have to do is turn on the camera, go to menu and hit 'down load via wifi' and it takes care of eveything else, sends the pictures straight to PICTURES. Ater a few seconds the camera closes the lens since your not using it as a camera. Takes longer to download the pictures using wifi vs. a USB but I don't care how long it takes, its much easier than finding a cable. The Sonly has such a large battery I haven't had to charge it once yet either! Wifi works fine once I worked with ESET anti-virus who showed my how to create a rule to allow the camera access.

I don't notice any significant lag. It connects wirelessly instead of via infrared. That may help reduce the lag. I'm running it on a TiVo Premiere.

I tried something much like this, and it didn't work. I think there are timing issues. If you want a remote webcam, you may have to go to one that is wifi-enabled.

We have our camera connected one floor above and offset by about 20 feet from our router. It has never had connectivity issues.

No- I have base camera upstairs and monitor downstairs and it works great. Every now and then I do have to unplug the video camera and re plug to reset the connection. Great monitor even in pitch dark and works within longer distance range. No wifi needed.

I have two 9821W cameras. The one with the extension cable is being used wireless. The other one is in a part of my house that does not get a good wireless signal from the router so that one is on ethernet. Amazingly the wireless camera performance is better than the ethernet camera when accessing remotely.

Mine connects to N just fine. I was curious myself about the same review you saw, and the previous answerer of your question. This camera operates on the 2.4 ghz wifi spectrum. Some peoples N wifi might be using 5 Ghz and hence not be able to see it. Especially routers that put out 2 signals, one is typically 2.4 Ghz and the other 5 Ghz. This is my best guess why some people claim it doesn't work or see N wifi, because it most definitely does.
