How do I set up home security cameras that I can view over the web?

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008
curious asked:


I travel a lot and work away from home a great deal. I would like to set up a security system that I can monitor from the internet. I will need 4 cameras and one will have to have be able to focus on objects 150′ away. The other three cameras will have to be able to focus from 0 to 50′. Any information on the set up, cost and availability of the equipment would be appreciated.

How true are those Brink’s home security commercials?

Michael C asked:


I have always wondered with those commercials. You know when the “would be” robber kicks the door open and within 2 or 3 seconds the phone rings and its Brinks Home Security. Does anyone have any experience with this? How true is this, and how fast do they actually respond?

is it possible for a wireless home security system to cause interference with other remote controls?

Friday, January 25th, 2008
Scott asked:


recently had a security system put on my home which uses wireless sensors. in less than a week, my remote controls for my digital cable box and tv are not working as they should. I have to be about a foot or so away from the cable box for it to work and when it does it only works for a few seconds. Replaced cable box remote with a new one and still the same thing. any help would be greatly appreciated on what to do or who to call.
