Do you need a PC or can it be run through a router for remote access?

You need to connect it to your router with a cable initially, then use a PC, or a device with a browser to configure it for wireless. Once that is done and tested, no pc is needed, the camera is self contained, just needs power.

It has to be connected to the router via an Ethernet cable for Internet access remotely.

No, the computer is only required for the initial setup. However your computer must be in if you want to retrieve clips from a software program such as Blue Iris, remotely. Your wireless router must be in at all times if your want to view your cameras live, remotely. I hope this helps

Yes, provided you have access to a high speed router in the room or in the facility, you will need an Internet connection and a PC in the room. You will plug the camera into an electrical outlet and from another outlet you will need to plug the receiver into an outlet, then to your router and PC. It is quick and easy to do once you have these connections. Then you can view the camera live on a smart phone anywhere and also record a few weeks of video onto the PC. The app is free and there will be no monthly charges other than the Internet connection Good idea, IMO

Yes. Once it's on your LAN, it can be accessed via a browser from any device on the same subnet (e.g. 192.168.100.x addresses).

You will need a router if that is what you are asking. But, everything else is built in and it is very easy to use.

I don't think you need computer. But you need to have a WI Fi modem available.

Yes it can be accessed either way. You choose when you do your setup. I did not set mine up for remote access but I am going to change my setup when the holidays are over and I have time to do it. Good luck with your device. I love mine.

Yes, you'll need a computer to set it up. You may manually do it using the browser-based utility or run the setup CD.

I have set up to my home network and do everything through a PC or Laptop, so I don't know the exact answer to this question. Even if it is possible the way you ask, it is definitely handy to do it through a PC

Simple answer is yes. It gets to be a question of just how portable you need your router to be.

yes it can - this is a network device so you can install the client software of just access it via the network

You do need a router. The time depends on the resolution and frames per second.

If it isn't hardwired directly to your computer, yes. If you have wifi you need a router.

I am going to say neither, because it is designed to only connect your network via wired or wireless. The unit has USB port to allow you to take normal usb devices such as drives and scanner and share them over your network. It isn't made to accept incoming wireless signal from a computer and grant access to the network.
