Linksys wireless webcam July 11, 2010 Jamie Warner First off it was very hard to figure out how to operate it. Then when you try to view it from a different computer or location..you cant... The website that controld the remote viewing capability has been shut down. Why even but this?
Flawed - requireds regular reboot May 14, 2010 GaryS (St. Louis, MO United States) This device can't seem to stay working for more than a week. Every week, I have to unplug the camera and plug it back in so the recording software will record video. The recording just stops somewhere mid-week and won't start again. Sometimes the camera won't even show video through the software or through it's own interface until you restart the camera.
The recording software doesn't work right either. It gives you the option to limit how much disk space it will use to record video. However, the settings don't seem to impact how much it actually uses. Mine stores about 1GB worth of data. I would like it to store more but can't get it to do that. Their technical support had no suggestions other than downloading the latest firmware for the camera which is already on there.
When it's working, it's adequate. But it's not something you can leave unattended and just assume it's working. You have to check it all the time to make sure the software is still recording. And again, you're going to have to rebooted it at least weekly WHEN (not if) it stops working.
I'm trying a Cisco camera next (I know it's still the same manufacturer...but maybe it's just this particular model that is flawed).
Major pain cam April 28, 2010 Maverick (NY, USA) This camera keeps disconecting form my wireless network -- same problem that many other reviewers already have noticed. Now the only hope it would stay connected in wired mode. Cam is very unreliable for home monitoring, especially if you are away for a few days. Software is a pure nonsence. I had to re-intall it many times. Bizarre product from SYSCO. I am giving it the last chance now in wired configuration before shipping it back. By the way, I realy liked wired web camera by Schlage. It does have poor features and internet service requres a monthly fee, but, it is a true plag-n-play and totally reliable when you need it in terms of the remote internet access. I don't care much about the camera with all the bells and wistles if you can't reliably access it via internet. This Linksys cam is cheap and fancy, but UNRELIABLE.
not bad BUT.... March 4, 2010 H. Smith (nj usa) the cam isnt too bad. when its finally programmed, its pretty dependable.
HOWEVER
thefact that there is an active x control with a certificate expired un july of 09, and STILL no fix from linksys for something easy to fix puts into question their WHOLE support structure. that should have been set to expire in 2015, or some time when g is no longer used(we have a b from dlink, but went with the linksys cause it was g wireless). then we removed g for pci compliance, and hardwired it. now, we cant use the newer cam JUST because of an expired certificate - unless i drill down the security of the workstation to non-existant for active x - something i refuse to do at a company. all in all, the cam was ok for business uses, but, as linksys hasnt updated the certificate, i will NOT be buying any linksys cams - im still deciding if this is bothering me enough to stop me from buying the rest of their line of hardware. and yes, i do this stuff for a living.
Works only with windows February 25, 2010 S. Kanakakorn (CA, USA) It was given to me as gift.
The title in this review might be a little bit misleading. You can use MAC or LINUX to get the video stream from this camera; however, you have to figure out your own recording solution. The setup software and recording works with only Windows. If you use something else, you are on your own. I give 1 star rating because of this.
To be fair, Linksys printed on the box that this product only works with Windows.
