I'm skeptical about the Logitech name just because I'm watching a video about the Logitech Alert 750i and it's showing that I will get both an indoor and outdoor camera and I don't think that's the truth? They said no bothering with WiFi and a WiFi...

I use four of the outdoor cameras and one indoor camera. The one weak camera in the system is the indoor one. I would never buy another indoor camera, but the outdoor ones (one used indoors) work very well.

This monitor and this camera will simply not work. I tried 2 different monitors to no avail. The only thing I ever got on the monitors was some white (snow). I turned the knob on the receiver so slow it took me several minutes to go from one end of the tuning spectrum to the other. still no good. I finally gave up and bought a much better Foscam wireless camera and once I got it up and running I had a great picture. So I guess I would suggest that you find something else. Thank You for the question.

Dear Paul, change the WIFI encyption authenication with our "Eyesee Finder", please come to www.szgeeya.com/ipc for related software. Please know that the camera shall not be too much near the wifi router, like dark under the lamp. But if long time video recording or surveillance, we would advise wired connection. Further questions please feel free to contact us.

No! There is no WIFI involved for any model of camera. There is a receptor on the camera that receives the line of sight signal from the remote.

I guess it is just a sale. I started my shopping process at Best Buy and noticed that the other cameras with the wifi feature were 160+ and I didn't really need that (I can deal with putting the little card in my laptop). I was all set to buy another camera but they couldn't find it in the store and getting one from a store that had several in stock was a major ordeal that was going to take an hour. I gave up and left. If they don't want to sell me a camera, too bad for them. I looked on Amazon and saw this and saw the great price (only $15 more than the more basic one I was going to buy) and snapped it up. I also got the leather case as an add on. It protects the camera well. I guess it is just a sale.

I'm actually going to order this after the new year.I called Sony and they werent much help with my question. I also asked Crutchfield and while they didnt have a definitive answer for me, they recommended that I run the video from my computer directly to my TV and the audio to the receiver. Worst case scenario, thats what I'll do. I'm glad I have a Logitech 880 remote.I tried looking for answers and I'm surprised that no one had questions about using this unit with a computer.As for the other receivers you mentioned, I think this has more value than either of those with the 4 HDMIs and 1080p upscale. I'm really looking forward to getting this and making some free time to set it up. I'm actually going to order this after the new year.I called Sony and they werent much help with my question.

logitech made some follow-on trackballs that were wireless and looked like - to some extent - the marble fx, but there were not any direct models of the fx marble that were wireless. sorry. they only made it (as is) for about a year then went in another direction. have no idea why, but in my opinion they tossed the best overall trackball ever. have managed to get hands on four, two for backup. for a 'rogue' creation, that i don't know. ajr

Thanks, PsychDoc. It'll be interesting to see what someone else at Logitech says. In the tech support world, sometimes we have to talk to several people before we finally get to someone who has the answers. Maybe, for you, the second time will be the charm. :-)

Thank you for that information. As a user of Skype, I considered spending the hundred dollars to buy cameras for myself and friends. Based on the information, I'll save money and stick with the Logitech Quickcam Pro 9000 for $60! The resolution on my Pro 9000 is wonderful.

That's Great I like that I'll keep you posted. Next question, Is there any wireless cameras or Do you have any wireless cameras so I could hide them in a particular areas? And Also so they won't see any wiring.

Thanks for the info thus far, Paul. I've been out of the country, lugging my 8 pound Dell Vostro around with me, wishing I had this baby. Sounds like the wifi card is good. Like the backlit keyboard? I assume the battery life will not be earth shatteringly long what with all the bells and whistles. The two reviews written thus far have provided about zero useful info, so if you can, keep it coming.

This model doesn't have WiFi. Check their product chart for which models have which features; I don't have the model names all memorzied so...Also adding on a WiFi version will only produce a WiFi signal from that unit. It won't transform these here into WiFi versions.However, at the time I bought these they were the best wired solution available. I have four in my home for my non-wireless devices. For that purpose I'm still happy with them years later.

My understanding from looking into it a couple of years ago is that it is optional, but without it you can only see real time images and not historical images over the Internet. I am not set up for any Internet viewing of my cameras at all, so I am far from expert about your question. You might check with Logitech customer service for better answers.

I would advise you to return it. I went through the same thing. What I learned from an IT friend....I live in a townhouse complex, the wifi could not distinguish my wifi code due to so many other wifi subscribers near by. I do think he was correct in his evaluation. I gave the printer to my sibling. He lives in a home. No problem receiving a connection to his wifi subscriber. This meant no more off line nonsense. I hope that helps.

These wireless cameras communicate with your wireless router. When you leave home you can turn oof your computers and log into the cameras threw your router. The range between your camera and router depends on the router but the cameras should respond well unless you live in a manson then get a stronger router. You login the cameras from anywhere in the world using the free DNS service that comes with each camera. If you are planning to mount these cameras in a window I would suggest black since white will reflect the image on the camera in some cares. Other wise white in fine especially if you are trying to blend it in on a shelf. These wireless cameras communicate with your wireless router.

In my experience just about any wired camera is better than a wireless one. I've always had trouble with them. However, I wouldn't go so far as to claim that this is an excellent camera. It works, has a descent picture, and is small and easy to mount. It is not 170 degrees (more like 100) and night vision is only marginal. Hope this helps.

Be careful Kenneth. I think Logitech is going under. I have been trying to order new cameras and parts for a long time. I can't get them.
