TRENDnet SecurView Wireless Surveillance Camera TV-IP110W : Great little camera for the price!

I bought TRENDnet SecurView Wireless Internet Surveillance Camera TV-IP110W with a little trepidation but It works great. I am a Mac person and unfortunately, you do need to downgrade to a pc in order to do some of the configuration (using the ip assign tool, setting up the motion detection).. but since I am bi-OSulal, I have a netbook that did the trick. (there are bits that require activeX.. which means ie only! Grrr...)

Setting up the wireless security camera was a little tricky. Know your router! My current router (from ATT) is a bit kludgy but I got it working fine on the network.

But once you have your network figured out, its a snap...

My only complaint is the field of view. Its field of view is a little narrow and I'm only able to get a portion of my target room into view (using it to watch the dogs when they're confined in a particular room).

Also.. 'specially for mac users.. there's a better app for the recording, etc.. than the one its boxed with.. google is your friend..

There's also a nifty app in the app store for Android that'll let you watch the security camera on your android phone (assuming you have the cam configured to view outside your network)
