Are there any charges to view the live feed from a computer located in a different state than the cameras

If you can get the network setup properly. If I remember correctly you sign into your network to view. I could view the camera from my iPhone although I was not in another state I believe it still would have worked. I could also view from a remote pc.Problem after a few weeks it quit working on my iPhone . It was mever compatible with the blackberry storm or the ipad1. I would suggest calling Lorex with the details of the devices you would like to use to view the video to make sure they are compatible. It was very frustrating to set up long waits for tech support and call backs. Not a plug and play, the system was returned.

Yes it is.... As long you have a smart phone such as an iPhone or a connection to the Internet then you can watch your camera anywhere in the world.... That is assuming that the DVR and related equipment will be at the same location as the camera.....

Being somewhat good with tech I bought this camera expecting to find a workaround allowing local recording but was unsuccessful. Dropcam has gone out of their way ensuring they continue profiting off you after your initial purchase. You can view live (delayed) video for free but $200 for that ability only is rediculous.

I concur with the others. The 'system' is hard wired. You may 'view' through a wireless device via the Internet, if supported. The cameras are NOT wireless.

As long as your camera is hooked to Ethernet, you can view it from your tablet or smart phone any where you have an internet connection. I can be in South America and view my house in USA, as long as my camera is plugged into Ethernet.

No. Ip cameras rely on being connected to the internet to send out the signal so you can see it from a different internet connection.

While mine is not set up in that location as I wanted to visualize the area where the three outside doors merge, I don't see why it would not work there. I was a touch skeptical about these cameras and the price of this dropped to under $100 so I thought it would be worth a chance. I have been impressed with the quality of the image and even my wife who was not thrilled with the purchase downloaded the app to show friends a live feed. The only issue with outdoor viewing with any of these cameras is where the sun will be at any given time of day. If protected I would guess this will provide you with good vision into what areas you want to see. Good luck.

No there is no fee. The instruction manual explains how to configure your computer to view the system online. I can view my home system from my computer at work.

No the apps are free, there are several that will work with this system. You obviously need internet service at the location using the cameras in order for you to remote view.

It looks like you are getting conflicting answers to your question. I guess the real answer is "It depends". If you just are monitoring the cameras at home then the answer is no. A wirelss LAN in your home will do the trick. If you want to monitor the cameras when away from home, then the internet is required, unless you have a very long cable. :)

If you are connected to the same network (ie if you are at home using the same wan/lan the camera is connected to) you can type in the ip address and view video real time. Alternatively, you can port fwd your router and purchase a dns ($20/yr) and allow yourself to view video from anywhere as long as you can get on the internet. For smart phones you can use tinycam monitor too, but only if you port fwd and buy dns. In summary, no software is needed to view realtime as long as you are connected to the same network. No additional software is need outside of network either as long as you pay for dns(www.dyndns.com) and set up port fwd on router.

I believe you can. You download the recorded show and should be able to watch it anywhere. I bought this so my daughter could watch recorded programs while she is away at college, so she uses it a lot more than I do. I hope this helped.

Sorry man, your thinking of live video feeds, this camera is not able to do that. I wish it did but all it does is capture and do playbacks.

I use "IP Camera Super Client" software for recording to a hard drive. Monitoring is done either via built-in browser-based software or software I'd mentioned.

I don't know for sure. My experiences with other software like this make me guess that you would have to pay a fee every time you put it in another computer.

While I am not 100% sure on this, as I am not interested in this functionality, I do not believe there is a live feed option. There are a couple of ports and this may be something it can do, one port is for continuous power feed, the other may allow for USB download, but I am not clear on whether this is just for download of the video, or live monitoring.
