There is a hill between the camera site and my wireless router, will a
wireless tcp/ip camera work at 1000' with a hill in between? What kind
of transmitter is on the camera? I've never used that kind before.

Should work - it's radio. If it doesn't, put a repeater at the top of
the hill. Same kind of transmitter as in the wireless adapter on your
notebook, or in your wireless router.

OK, I get a vision of camera-(radio)-wireless router-computer. I tried
googling on wireless cameras but never saw any mention of range. Do I
look for a dedicated radio and how does it fit to the camera? I have a
cheap camera now, what is the (radio) called that transmits the camera
to my wireless router.

May sound like stupid questions, but my computer has no wireless
connection so I'm using a wireless router with wires connected (Linksys
WRT54G).

You buy a wireless web-cam.
Look at this one:

from Linksys as an example.
Just google "internet IP webcam" or "wireless internet webcam"

Using a wired computer on a wireless router is definitely not a sin.
That's why they have all those RJ plugs on them.
