Remote Security Camera?

Planning on buying a home, I want too put a Security Camera in the home so I can monitor the home. Looking at 800 miles.

I understand the principle of the camera. What is a needed too support the camera? I presume another computer? Then what links that computer location "B" too my home Computer location "A" Again I presume the Internet,Does that link have too be high speed,can it be dial-up? But what happens at location "B" when I have a power failure and I have too re-boot that system,how is that done? And what program bridges the two computers too gether, If on the internet is this secure where only I can monitor?

Remote Security Camera?suzuki

There are a couple of ways that this can be done.

The easiest way would be to use what is known as an "IP camera." This is a CCTV camera with a built-in network adapter. You plug the IP camera into the internet. In a residential application, this would typically require a high-speed connection, such as DSL or cable. The IP camera is assigned its own IP address (such as 12.123.45.123).

At the viewing end, you would need a standard personal computer with an internet connection. To view the camera, you use a standard web browser, and enter the IP address to connect to the camera. There is usually a log-on screen that requires you to enter a username and password before you can start viewing. Some IP camera manufacturers also have their own software for viewing that work like the web browser but offer additional features.
