Rating: - Great product and excellent service
These people have the best service that I've encountered in years. I bought this webcam to use with Weather Underground. The instructions to set it up were a little bit over my head. I called them and within just a few minutes I was talking to someone in Virginia who was easy to understand. They guided me through as far as I could go at that point. A second call got me completely set up. At about six months I had a viewing problem and the red light on the unit was flashing. I was instructed ... Read More

Rating: - One of the Best wireless network cameras in the market
Great camera with superb image quality, great range of reception and almost zero distortion. I own 5 of these cameras. I have one setup for outside, underneath the garage(away from sunlight) & is placed inside an acrylic box that i bought from the container store to prevent wetness and dust. I had to drill a hole on the side of the box for the AC adapter. The camera is placed about 35 feet away from the DSL wireless router, which is located inside the house & i have no problem with connection or distortion ... Read More

Rating: - Simple, Easy, and worth every penny
The Panasonic cameras (we bought 3 - 2 for indoors and 1 outside) are exceptional in both quality and ease of setup. I read many reviews of people having issues setting up the wireless connection, but I found it to be very simple after discovering the keys to it - My NetGear wireless N router is set in B/G mode and you must set the cameras to B/G as well or they will not connect. Also, even though it tells you to turn the camera off and unplug the wired connection, DON'T, just flip the switch and then pull ... Read More

Rating: - Works well on Macintosh
I bought this haing read some of the reviews of success on Mac networks. The camera works as advertised. I eventually set it up on my network successfully - I thought I would add a few things I learned.

The setup is straightforward. You do not need the disc that comes with it or a Windows computer. You plug the camera into the ethernet of the router with the switch on the camera on 'wired'.

You have to find the IP address of the camera. Click on the apple in the top right ... Read More

Rating: - Excellent camera but not user friendly!
Picture quality is excellent for a camera that small and the mic is very sensitive that you. However, as a normal user it was impossible for me to configure it to my router.
It was not the type of plug and play camera, I had to take it to an IT expert.
