1Junk, don't bother.  Dec 26, 2008
The setup is not easy, the software only works with Windows, and you can only view the video with internet explorer. The video quality is horrible. Don't bother with this one.

4Better than many report - but a problematic Active X Control  Dec 07, 2008
I installed two of these cameras using their built-in wireless connection to the home network. Getting these cameras to be viewable from across the internet is no harder or no easier than publishing any other server on any network. Regardless of the product, this is not an easy task for someone who is not into networking. One of these two cameras is in a sheltered outdoor location and is working fine at 2-degrees farenheit at this moment. The 320x240 native resolution is OK for general monitoring. The video email feature works very well but the motion detection that triggers the email is hard to calibrate or maybe cannot be calibrated to make it reliable. I believe the the low-light complaint is over-stated. It brightens the view of outdoor viewing deep into dusk, and then it drops off quickly.

The one serious issue is the Active X control that you must install to view the video stream. This Active-X control works fine but it has malicious behaviors. It causes problems with Internet Explorer that prevents features on other web sites from working correctly. This is a problem that I am living with and this issue is well documented on dozens of newsgroups. This is a definite reason to not buy this camera. I have purchased other small specialty products from Linksys with bad setup software and documentation with important factual errors. As a Cisco owned company, they need to improve their Quality Control on software and manuals for some of their low end consumer products. The cameras are fine . . the Active X control is a serious issue. I am OK with the results because I only paid $50 each new making them a disposable at some point.

3Camera good software not  Nov 27, 2008
Got the camera to work by going to its address but the software can not find the camera which makes it useless. went to linksys web site which was not any help, do not have a week right now to see about getting the software to work right now. I will keep the camera but will not buy linksys again.

2Ok for the money spent but not for much else  Nov 27, 2008
We have had good luck with Linksys products for the most part so when we were looking to add two cameras to the workplace there was no question that we would go with the Linksys Wireless G Internet cameras.

If only we could have done it over again..

The camera first of all is a lot bigger than you may realize. And to most this won't matter as you don't care if its noticed or not, just that it works wirelessly and does its job. But even setting it up is a process. You have to go through a long winded program that comes with it and hope that it can find your router and then you have to enter in your information for the WEP and security and sometimes it took and sometimes it didn't. It just became more work then we had hoped in just setting it up. But once you get through all of that and you get that solid blue light then its all smooth sailing from there right?

Well not quite. First you have to set it up on the wall and have it plugged in at all times to an outlet and then once you have that going you have to hope its not too far away from your router or forget about getting a clear and constant signal from it.

And the biggest problem with this camera is the software. Its just awful. Sometimes it detects the cameras we have set up, other times it doesn't and you have to push reload again in the program to view the images in the hopes that it finds it. Sometimes the images are laggy and behind. Sometimes the sound is picked up from it, other times it isn't.

After investing so much time and effort into the cameras and setting them up its not worth all the time it would take to go through the process again with new cameras but boy if we can do it again, we would have picked something else and even a bit more money if need be.

Linksys is usually pretty good with wireless products, but I think they really dropped the ball on this one. Something that should be more user friendly and easy to use, is cumbersome and annoying to use. And that really isn't a help to us when we just wanted to put a wireless camera in the front hallway of our business to see who comes in and out and another outside at our back gate for the same reason.

Maybe others will get luckier with them then we have been but we have to give a huge thumbs down to this product. I wouldn't mind any of the other problems if the program to view the camera at least worked well. Maybe one day they will get the program and cameras perfected but it sure isn't now.

Very disappointing to say the least. If you want my advice, look elsewhere. There has to be better wireless cameras then this one.

2Web Cam  Nov 25, 2008
This Web Cam does not have any low light quality at all, I have several cheaper webcams that have MUCH better low light quality. I would not suggest anyone buying this cam for settings where lighting is not Extremely bright.
