Note: Depending on the number of IP cameras you plan to use it could saturate your network. How the system is setup such as record on motion etc makes a difference and make sure you have enough hard drive space to handle the potentially large file sizes. For a home system you may not have to worry about any of this. Just food for thought. I have played with the Security Spy software ... nicely done.
