Default Wireless IP camera as baby monitor?

Might get one for the babys room, but then I've also thought about one
for the front and back of the house, with motion detection, recording to
my hard drive etc. Not worried about sound as I will be using a proper
baby-monitor for that.

Does anyone have any recommendations please?

Thanks.

Yes,I recommend you shouldn't transmit video signals to the internet whilst
its monitoring the baby.

I've used Axis 205 and 206 wired IP cameras, and found them to be very
reliable with good picture quality, so the Axis 207W is probably worth
looking at. Shame about the price though. As an example, the righthand
column of pictures at http://www.sgurr.co.uk/lundycam/index.html is taken
using a modified Axis 205.

Why would it upload to the internet when it's connected on the local LAN?

The biggest risk, if the signal gets out, is the invasion of social
workers...!

I use a Linksys WVC54G.

Not great in low light, but available on line pretty cheaply. Picture
is more than adequate to baby position etc, and has (scratchy) sound.
Email me directly for screen shots in different lighting, if you like.

It also has built in motion detection and can email a short video to (I
think) 3 email addresses.

You'd be amazed at how badly some people can configure things!

They'd really have to screw it up to do that! But then, without the
halfwits I'd have no wireless broadband to piggy-back on when mine goes down
