I have a customer who has an office with five rooms. He would like me to install a video camera at the front door and then be able to see who walks into the office lobby on his computer. The individual rooms' computers are not networked but he does have WIFI. He says he thinks that there is a way to put the video signal over the WIFI so that everyone in the office with a computer who is logged on to that WIFI will be able to see the camera signal on their computer. Is there a way to do this? Thanks, Lenny


There will only be one camera and I misspoke about the rooms. Yes there are five but it will most likely be viewed in just two, or perhaps three. Can I hard wire the cameras to each room and then somehow hard wire into the individual computers? Lenny



Why complicate things? Video monitors are cheap and can be looped,
or you could use a modulator and some old NTSC TV sets for monitors.
Converting analog video to digital uses up computer's resources. What
are people supposed to do, work or watch the video?
