Hi, pmfji - I set up a linksys camera to do this - setup was the usual game of guessing what the manual meant to say, but I managed it eventually (be sure to set up security on the camera and if you're using a wireless router on that as well). Remote access worked OK but relies on an Activex being loaded wherever you want to access from (you can download it from your/ their website or I used a memory stick). There was also a remote viewer program that was a bit flaky. The big disappontment was the motion detection software, it reacted to changes of light levels e.g from cars passing nearby - my email was swamped and I had to turn off the camera - but it still sent me empty emails from time to time!
