Does this have wifi. I would just like to have a wire from computer to camera. Not sure I can figure out the wifi.

I was a little disappointed that while it does have wifi, the wifi is only to download to mobile devices. You need the usb cord that is included to download to a laptop or desk computer. I love this camera, by the way.

All I know is the signal is by the included cables from receiver to a monitor. I don't know of any way to catch the wireless signal from camera to another device. My model is not intended for internet or cell use.

What they already said- NO. But, I tried a "wireless" before and unless the camera has its own power (battery), it has to be wired to a power source. That turned out to be less do-able than this system with power and communication going thru same cable.

You cannot connect the camera to a computer. The ethernet socket is for connecting it to the router, which you need to do in order to set it up. Once it is set up you can disconnect the ethernet cable and connect to the router through wifi. If you have not bought this yet, I would look at a different one. I have five of these types of cameras. They are all knock offs of the Foscam camera. I have had good luck with all of them except this one. I had it set up at our camper so I could keep an eye on things there. I could almost never connect to it, and when I did the response was agonizingly slow. It would reboot for no reason constantly, which means more waiting. I tried three of the other cameras just to rule out other hardware and the internet connection. They all worked great and very fast. I just packed this camera up to send it back to Amazon. Do yourself a favor and buy the Wanview or the Foscam. They are about the same price. Those are the two that I have that work best and are the fastest.

Wi Fi is built in. you need to download the wifi app to your phone or tablet, then enable wifi on that device and select in from the menu on the camera. Works great.

No, it doesn't work with wifi. As far as I know there is no other version of it. You might wanna try a web cam

No, it does not have WiFi, you still need to transfer images via cable or memory card

Power and Ethernet plug in. But you can have it wireless through your Wi-Fi. The power cord is only about 5-6 ft. You will deffinatly need an extender unless you have a plug right where you need the camera. Also as an fyi, I was just informed by the makers that their own program doesn't allow for motion recording and that a third party software is required. It also seems that their own software doesn't record on a set timer nor with manual recording as I tried the last two methods with no success. So far it's excellent in showing me what is streaming at a given moment but if I'm not there and something happens, there is no way to record unless third party software is used. So that was a headache. Good pic quality though.

The camera has a menu choice titled "Send to Computer" and "Send to Smartphone". Then a Wi-Fi icon appears on the menu. I have not yet tried it, but it appears there is capability.

We have some more similar cameras and they are running with the WiFi there. I also smart phone, tablets, etc., with the Wifi. I analized it from the router side, but I could not see any responses from the camera WiFi with either DHCP or fix address setting. It works fine with a LAN cable. The camera itself is fine and I am using it with a LAN wire setting now.

It does have WiFi. But, it only works with the Nikon app for iPhone that you download for free. It's difficult to get the camera to sink with your phone as well. Other than that, it's a fantastic camera. This whole package was worth the money.

You will need an Ethernet cable. Why does camera not connect via wifi anymore? I had power issues with my camera and sent it to trendnet for repairs. I have yet to receive it back.

We use this camera with a wireless router. We have learned the farther your camera is away from the router signal source the slower it operates. However, you can also connect directly to it using ethernet cable. Or, connect it to a modem/router using ethernet cable.

I believe their is a cable that comes with the camera that you can connect to the computer. I'm sorry if I couldn't be more helpful but the camera I bought was for my daughter.

Although the camera does not ship with a USB cable, if you have the correct one, it will allow you to download with the cable. The WiFi functions are tricky, but they do work once you figure them out.

u can hook it up to an wi-fi router and connect thru an ip port, not exactly wireless by definition but it doesn't require a wire to your screen tv or anything else that you want to watch it on, if you are talking about making the cameras wireless than good luck but it's not worth it!
