With its compact, all-in one design, the DCS-900W is a great remote monitoring solution for your home.

The D-Link Securicam NetworkTM DCS-900W Internet Camera with its compact, all-in-one design, is a great remote monitoring solution for your home. The DCS-900W Internet Camera connects quickly and easily to your existing Fast Ethernet network or 802.11b wireless network and a setup wizard will guide you through the setup process to get you up and running in a matter of minutes.
The DCS-900W Internet Camera features a built-in Web server, which means that it can stream video images directly to the Internet. Video images captured by the DCS-900W can be viewed remotely by typing the IP address of the DCS-900W into a Web browser. With its easy-to-use Web-based interface, the DCS-900W Internet Camera can be managed and configured from anywhere in the world.

By signing up with one of the many free Dynamic DNS services available on the web, you can assign an easy-to-remember name and domain (e.g. www.mycamera.myddns.com). This allows you to remotely access your camera without having to remember the IP address, even if it has been changed by your Internet Service Provider.

The included Windows-based IPView Lite software provides even more features, allowing you to archive streaming video straight to your hard drive, monitor up to 4 cameras on a single screen, rotate camera views, enable motion detection, and update the firmware on your DCS-900W Internet Camera.
