Peace of mind in an instant
If you want to make sure that the kids are OK when they come home from school, check that your dog isn’t tearing the house up, or ensure your home is safe and sound while you’re on holiday, our simple guide to home monitoring and security is a great place to start. We’ll help you determine everything you need to view what’s happening at home... wherever you are.
Why home monitoring?
Our range of home monitoring solutions allow you to monitor and record your home via any Internet-connected computer, iPad®, iPhone®, or Android™ device, anytime and anywhere
Our entry level cameras enable you to check on your home with live video and audio streaming - perfect for keeping an eye on the kids when they get home from school. While our Enhanced Day/Night Cloud Camera (DCS-942L) allows you to record video footage of your home for up to 7 days.
Adding our mydlink™ Network Video Recorder (DNR-322L) means you can record multiple cameras for up to 6 weeks* - ideal for keeping an eye on your home when you are away on a longer break.
Getting started
For a simple, yet highly effective home monitoring system, you’ll need these components:
- An Internet connection
- A router
- One or more network cameras
- A PC, iPhone, Android Phone
- iPad or Android tablet
- A mydlink™ account
If you want to set up comprehensive home security you can add a mydlink™ Network Video Recorder (DNR-322L).
Your Internet connection and router
A fast and reliable Internet connection ensures your mydlink™ camera is always connected and shows you real-time footage - so having the right router is essential. We’ve launched a range of routers which have been specifically designed for the demands of video. Both routers give the very best speed and coverage around your home.
