Yes, some wireless security cameras can operate off of an internet service. The Linksys Wireless-N Home Surveillance Camera is an example of one such security camera. It uses the Internet to send a live feed of video to a web browser or a smart phone.

Best wireless security camera?

Wireless Cameras are relatively expensive and are not as reliable as wired systems. Most wireless systems are Line of Sight (LOS). Remember that wireless security cameras require power to operate. So even though by going with a wireless solution you can eliminate the need for coaxial cable for video transmission, you still have to wire the camera to a power source. Keeping that in mind it depends on what you want from your camera. How far away will the camera be from what you are trying to record? Will the Camera be inside or outside? Does it need to record color or can it be in black and white? Do you want to be able to remotely make the camera zoom in or change the viewing angle? There are a lot of questions to answer before deciding what the 'best' wireless camera is. To help answer some of those questions check out this guide to help you figure out what you are looking for in a security camera. http://www.apexcctv.com/CCTVBuyerGuide.aspx


Choosing Wireless Security Cameras?

Wireless security cameras are the easiest to install. They can be used in permanent or temporary installations. They do require a household current power supply nearby to tap into for permanent installation. The appeal of the design is that no cables need to be run from the cameras to the monitors and recording equipment. The signal of both video and often sound (depending on the camera) is transmitted to a receiver that can be hundreds of feet away.There should be two layers of security cameras in use at any location. There should be some dummy cameras to distract those who are planning to circumvent security and cameras that are hidden to catch those in the act of committing a crime. Exposed dummy cameras will deter the timid criminal. It will get him to choose another place to ply his illegal trade. Exposed cameras will be the ones criminals will try to defeat as well. The hidden ones keep the visual window open to catch criminals in the act or to provide information on the current location of perpetrators of a crime.There many dummy cameras that can operate on a battery that flashes an LED to make it look real. Some even have a panning motor that will allow the camera to move back and forth. Some even have a fake cable that looks like it is being run into the wall where it is mounted. The real wireless security cameras should be low profile and able to be hidden as well as possible. There are many mounting options and configurations for security cameras. Use a bit of ingenuity to design a hidden system of cameras to monitor public areas. Be aware that some private areas are by law not permitted to have a camera of any type even if it is private property.Dummy cameras are very inexpensive. Wireless security cameras made to be hidden may cost a bit more and in some instances be less than those in a big metal housing. It depends on where they will be mounted. Common everyday objects can conceal a wireless camera. Everything from a store mannequin to a book on a shelf can be a mount for a camera.


Wireless Surveillance Cameras: Signal Interference?

In today's digital world, wireless technology has made its way into an array of devices and gadgets, including surveillance cameras. The biggest problem with wireless devices is interference, which causes weak or no signals at all. This is because most wireless devices use the same frequencies to transmit their signals, usually 2.4 GHz. A cordless telephone, bluetooth device, and internet router could all interfere with the wireless signals that are transmitted between the surveillance camera and the receiving monitor or DVR. The best way to fix this interference problem is to check if any of the wireless devices could be set up to operate on a different frequency band, such as 5 GHz.


What are Cons of wireless network?

The cons of a wireless LAN (Local Area Network - the type of network you have in your home or business) are speed and security. Speed - This is a con when comparing a wi-fi/wireless network to a wired one. Typical wired ethernet networks operate at 100Mbps whereas the typical wireless network operates at about half that, 54Mbps. Of course your internet connection is likely to be much, much slower than either of these speeds so this will only affect you when transfering files on your LAN, not with Internet browsing or downloading files from the Internet, etc. Security - Out of the box, most wi-fi routers and access points have no security enabled. This makes it easy for you to connect but it also makes it easy for anyone within range to connect. More and more newer wireless equipment is now coming with installation software that will help you set up the proper security to keep outsiders off of your network.
