I do not know much about Security Camera yet. Does it need to be hookup to a security system like Swann to work? or just sync it to the Smartphone?

No, to both. The camera will have its own IP address and you can access it using a browser. If you are home, you can go direct using its IP Address like 192.168.1.81 or if you are away from home, you type in your router address and then :81 after the router address. You will need to port forward port 81 or whatever port you assign to your camera in your router. Tech support can assist you if you have trouble with the directions.

The camera is stand alone. YOu need an inernet connection, a PC, MAC, Iphone or Tablet. You may need a Live Cams Pro Software for Iphone IPAd or Android, and IPCC BlueIris Software to record the video. Nothing else needed.

No it does not need to hooked too a security system I have mine on the blue iris software on my computer it's a great software to record video from ip cameras . If you know how to port forward the ports in your router and jazz than you can see on your phone using ip cam viewer app

There are free an paid apps that work with the camera. There isn't a Wansview native app but they use common communication protocols. And you can always use a native browser as well.

I use and app on my iPhone called iCam. I have multiple cameras at my home and work and all of them show up on my iOS devices. Additionally I can choose to record motion event and or send me text notifications when there is motion. Works flawlessly.

I use an android phone and i downloaded an application from called ZVIEWER from Zmodo. Look it up on the app store and if it is available then technically it should work. If not other apps such as IP Cam Viewer is another options. Technically any software of that type should do the trick but I have not tested it so I don't know for sure.Hope this helps.

You must connect to Y-cam on your computer, but at no charge. Then you download their app to your iphone. I will know more after my trip, then the motion sensor is activated, how well this works in Europe. This is separate from my other home security. I hope this was helpful to you. Well, I guess the answer is no.

You need internet service with a wireless router to connect the camera in order to view it on your computer or smartphone. It's a very simple setup and once connected you can view the camera where ever you are. You can make the camera private (as I do) or public so anyone can see what you are monitoring.

You'll need a DVR recorder and a camera wire to make this camera work.

This is only the camera. You would need cabling to a DVR surveillance system.

You have got to get the Audio Video Power Security Camera Cable with BNC RCA Adaptor ACBVA150 3JH. I can send you a pic of how to hook it up. If you send me a link to copy and paste it. If you see the pic you will know how it works

I actually got a security camera with it too, but you need to apply power to the camera, receiver (if you have one), and TV all at the same time. If you have a receiver (like I do) you need to plug the VIDEO ONLY (usually yellow plug) into one of the white or yellow plugs (on the TV); If you have a CAMERA ONLY you need to plug the VIDEO ONLY (usually yellow plug) into one of the white or yellow plugs (on the TV). (PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TV DOES NOT SUPPORT AUDIO) It is a bit confusing but the white and yellow (on the TV) are two separate video inputs that you can toggle between each. The RED is the power, just use a standard AC TO DC converter that will fit into the TV plug, and make sure the OUTPUT: 12V --- 1.0A is correct so you don't fry the TV. (there are different sizes that will fit into the TV so make sure you find one that fits) If you have any more questions please Email me at: Todd.Gimbel@gmail.com

Hi, I have it on the network and it streams to my Debian server running Zoneminder. It works OK for the money. If you have a decent recent version of linux (Ubuntu for instance) with java support in the browser, you can configure it on the browser just fine. I didn't try it with motion, but I see no reason not to work, since it works in Zoneminder. This is the url I user in zoneminder: http://&lt;username&gt;:&lt;password&gt;@&lt;ip&gt;/cgi/mjpg/mjpg.cgi Replace the stuff in &lt;&gt; with the proper info. I hope this helps. Even though this works fine, I would recommend you a better quality camera in the same price range, like the new D-Link. If you do a research, you can buy one with about $35 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/D-Link-Wireless-N-Network-Surveillance-Camera-W-iPhone-Remote-Viewing-DSC-930L-/360817167462?pt=US_Security_Cameras&hash=item5402610c66)

I use an Android application called IP Cam Viewer Basic on my Samsung Galaxy S III which works great. Please read my full review of this camera before you buy it though. Don't plan on using the intercom feature with any software.

No. It's just a camera that is used to connect a security system. I use them with a defender security system, and connect that to the internet, so I can get all my camera video on my droid device.Don't buy this camera. I had 6 of them and they have all failed. I replaced them with this one for half the price and the low light performance is twice as good.Aposonic A-CDBI09B 480TVL Indoor/Outdoor Weather-proof CCTV Surveillance IR Camera

Hi Jennifer, This is not a wireless camera system. It still need wires to let the whole system work. If you want to do remote view, you need to set up the DDNS. Will that answer your questions? Do you have any other questions? Thank you, and have a nice day : ) Guardian Electronic Service

See the other answers. You will need an external power supply of some kind, but that is true of all cameras unless there is a battery option. Provided the amount of energy something like this would consume with a motion detector on 24/7, batteries really aren't anything but a short term fix.In terms of the camera's controls and data transfer it is wireless. It simply offers you a hard line option which if you can use it, is still the best way to go for reasons I would be happy to discuss if you need. When you first set it up it does ask that you do so using an ethernet port.

Actually I have never tried using the camera with my smartphone, BUT in saying that, it is a Wi-Fi compatible camera. I will try connecting with my phone, I DO know it works great with my HP 6210 All-in-One printer which is also WIFI!
