Dave and Pranab,

I am thinking about doing this in my house as well however I wanted to
set up a hybrid system using a few wireless and wired technologies.

Are there wireless cams that do 802.1.x authentication?
What is the security like on cams that run on the 'zwave' technology?
What about the x10 which is similar? (these are home automation
technologies)

I read an article that someone can come plug into to your exterior to
your house and gain access to these devices. Can anyone make any
comments regarding this? I would be very interested

Hi all,

I apologize if this is off topic since I am dealing with a home situation
here. I am considering implementing a surveillance system for my house. I
plan to use IP cameras. Yes, I already have a network in place and have
figured out the placement of the cameras.

The network video recorder is proving to be the most expensive bit of
equipment in the whole setup. I was wondering if it is possible to use a
desktop pc instead. I would connect the cameras to a switch and have a
desktop pc interrogate the cameras and relay the feeds in real-time to a
television such that a user can change channels to monitor the different
camera feeds. Yes, we get TV tuner cards but do we get software that does
something like this? I need non-computer savvy users to be able to monitor
the cameras.

Pranav
