I know I have seen posts about people using them for monitoring thier goats about to kid so thought I would ask here. I am looking for a kit that is weatherproof and wireless and will work at night. I want to hook one up in the goat barn when it is finished, one on the house one inside the kennel and one outside the kennel. Suggestion on a good one?

Mine is a D-Link, wireless, not sure about weatherproof, but they have newer ones out now so maybe.

I am just seeing cameras...do those come in a kit to hook to your computer? OK, I am not savy on how security cameras work...so looking for something that will wirelessly hook into my computer and is easy. I don;t need to record long term, most just want it so I can keep an eye on things when I am inside.,,,and to see how the latest escape artist collie is getting out. When I just had one, it was not too big of a deal....but I now have 3 and can't figure out HOW she is getting out so I can solve the issue. She is smart and won;t do it when anyone is watching...and she knows when I am watching from the house.

they come with the program disc and instructions on how to connect. Plus if you have problems setting it up they are really good about walking you through it step by step. I got a really good deal on one at best buy last year. it works well so far.

OK, I guess I will take a trip to Bestbuy tommorrow and see if they have it or something similar....or maybe I can get some model number of systems that will work for me there and then come home and find it cheaper online. Thanks!
