Soundy,
I have absolutely no choice but to set up the security. I am not rich
but willing to spend reasonable amount of money. My brother lives a
couple of my miles from my place and we have an extra currently unused
computer at his place which I can use to record on over the internet.
My budget varies from 2k to 3k depending on the fool proofness of the
system. We both have broadband internet, I found a couple of door alarm
system vendors who quoted me $100 for install and approx $30-35 per
month for a two year contract. Suggest me what I have to do with the
camera system on top of that door alarm system.

Thanks for the kind response. I wont be watching it all the time on the
internet. I just need the system to record it somewhere else also apart
from my own apartment when somebody enters my studio apartment (13X17
room with one entrance door and one 6ftX8ft window) when I am not home.
I want to capture a clear picture and video of the face of the
intruders so I can use it in court if the need arises. I will try to
shop around in the next couple of days and find somebody who can do the
alarm system for 20-25 per month.
How many video cameras do you think I
need for a studio size of 13ft X 17ft.
Do I need a DVR or can I use an
existing computer with some RECORDING SOFTWARE that can capture the
video feed on the internet.
Both me and my brother have DLINK broadband
wireless routers one is 108Mbps and the other is 54Mbps.
Which brand IP cameras with what features do you suggest.
Can I use my DLINK broadbnad router with 4 ports as a switch for the cameras ?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of IP cameras compared to
regular CCTV cameras ? (not sure if it is stupid question).
harry said:Tell me why should it cost more than 2k-3k for video surviellance
cameras and recording devices excluding the door alarm system. Its just
a studio apartment with 13X18 ft room with one entrance door and one
6ftX8ft window.

I dont have that kind of cash but will use credit cards if I have to
since the security set up I mentioned in my original post is an
absolute necessity for some reason I cannot disclose here. Please guide
me if you can.

What you could do then, if you want to record at his place and not at
yours, is just use IP cameras and a broadband router (I recommend D-Link),
and a switch if you're going to have more than four cameras, to put your
cameras "online", then put a DVR system that will record the IP cameras at
your brother's place. Take a look at www.videoinsight.net, their system
will work with IP cameras, and allow you remove viewing access via remote
client and web interface.

Everywhere Man said:None. Lucky Dan came in 2nd (place) but the original call said "In the
5th Place it on Lucky Dan". After the window closed was when he said
"No I said place"
Now I will drive you nuts by asking you the name of the horse that WON
the race?

waste of time.
