Home Security Cameras

This is going to be a bit of an odd request for reviews and recommendations but I'm looking for a set of in-house security cameras that can be accessed remotely. In particular, I'm looking for a system that can be hooked up via wifi where I can see a live feed. Ideally it would have sound but it isn't necessary.

My grandmother is progressing though dementia and I want to keep an eye out on her and check in on her remotely. I've already hired someone to take care of her throughout the week but as I do my check ups, I often find that the people that are suppose to be taking care of her do not actually fulfill what they say they do.

Anyways, if anyone could point me in the right direction or have any first hand recommendations, I would really appreciate it.

Most DVR's these days have have web viewing. I am in the process of upgrading our system and will be geting a DVR to replace our computer from here: Security Cameras, DVR Systems, CCTV Systems and Surveillance Cameras


How big is the place? how many camera's do you need? Do you need to be able to see in the dark?

If you only weed a couple of camera's you can buy some wireless IP camera's like this

or this with night view and remote pan tilt: http://products.ncix.com/detail/d-li...88472-1253.htm

Looking to get 3 as the place is generally pretty small (looking to have it installed in the living room, bedroom, and kitchen. Would not need night vision.
