With the introduction of singtel's home automation solution. Many would be tempted to get this for their home. Perhaps it is also good to explore this topic here as the solution provides IP Camera too.

In fact, similar technology ideal has already emerge on the market in the early 2014 October where chinese manufacturers have been showcasing their solutions in trade shows.

The solution contains a hub to control your electronic devices at home and including your ip cameras. Even back then, some ip cameras already had infra built in to control your tv n aircons by year 2015.

Singtels' solution uses z wave which is a low bandwidth n will not interfere with your other 2.4ghz bandwidth. Read more on the wiki on how it uses sort of mesh with the help of 3rd device to help 2 far away devices communicate with each other.

The mesh idea of z wave is good but i still believe ip cameras will use back 2.4ghz bandwidth as the one used by z wave seems too small for huge data rate transfer.

Another concern is the battery life if sensors are using battery n not directly connected to a power source. As we all know battery have a certain lifespan. Once used up. The device will no longer work. Imagine the hasssle of battery change climbing up n down the windows or top of the door to replace the contact sensor battery. These should always be part of the consideration during purchases. But rest assure that vendors have app that gives you the heads up to change your battery.

What I seriously loved is that z wave will b a standard protocol that will not be tied down by brands. So diff brands can work with each other. We should b expected to see more development in this area as a norm

Just got the dlink DCS-2630L, will do a simple review on it later

This should be good. It is a 180 degree wide angle. Pls give us live image from the product. I want to see the corner of the lens and make comparison with Wanscam's OEM.

Probably putting my head into the firing range here, but just to share, I did my own installation over time, slowly learning bit by bit. And almost dying in the process.

If anyone is interested, I am using;
D'Link DIR 868L on 1Gb Starhub.
DCS 5222L B1 via LAN Cable
DCS 935L via Wifi AC
DCS 2630L via Wifi AC

Access is via MyDlink both android app and PC Windows 7. And Android OWLR App.

If anyone has questions, want pictures, comments, or hopefully some advise, feel free to ask.

Its been good so far, I should add.

Any ongoing promotions for IP Cameras now? Called Challenger but looks like the Sineoji cameras are at full price now.

Are you a Challenger member ? If you are, get the sineoji 498V at $69 ($139) which is a good bargain. Using it now and serves me well.

Waiting for the PT713V promo, challenger member is at $239.

Hi all, anyone has experience with surge spoiling the microsd card in the IP Camera? My Aztech IP Camera can't seem to read it's own sd card but other sd card is fine.
