Hi,
I am looking to fit wireless CCTV cameras to my garage and house to cover my garden and driveway.

Anyone got a good wireless CCTV recommendation?

Looking to spend £200 and fit myself.

Cheers

OMG how wierd is this,

I've justy logged onto ask the PH community the exact same question and somebody beat meto it, However im looking at a 4 camera set up with recorder etc and my budget is around a grand.

To save me asking a the same question I hope you dont mind me hijacking your thread?

Thanks again ands sorry for the thread Hijack wink

I installed several wired cameras and one wireless. I think most wireless cameras work on 2.4Ghz frequency same as my wireless mouse and WiFi box - I found this to be a problem as I got interference from my wireless mouse and it caused my WiFi to continually drop out (Orange Livebox), I finished up disconnecting the camera.

I didnt bother to check if there are other cameras available that use another frequency - It would be worth checking with someone more learned than me if this will cause you a problem, perhaps there is something I should have done that I didnt do.

Good luck.

With a £200 budget I'd try Maplins but maybe up it a tad (& catch a sale!)
