What about putting a Mac address filter on the wireless router and only allow that one computer. Programs like war still can't get through it either.

My requirements are to be able to view them remotely, to save video when motion is detected to a computer, and to be wireless.

Why wireless? You still have to run power to the camera, and others can see what your cameras transmit.

MAC filtering is pretty ineffective by itself.

1. Axis cameras (more pricey than hongkong junk, but worth it)
2. Milestone 'GO' software (FREE download from world leader in VMS)
3. a PoE switch, to run power & data to your cameras via Cat5
4. a wifi router, if you must connect via wifi (not recommended)
5. your NVR/ old beater garage desktop computer
6. a good DDNS subscription (for remote viewing)

You can easily put together a 4 camera 'superior-than-chinese-crap-in-a-box' system for around $700.

Some one that has done this before.

I got this wireless security camera. I'm not that techie so I'm not sure how the wireless transmission is secured. I Had a friend set it up for me. Any thoughts on this?

I have a Panasonic BL-C131A. It is not an outside camera I put by the window by the front door. It has sound and can be controlled by your cell phone via an internet site. It hooks in through my wireless router.

It's probably not secured. I refuse to use wireless cameras. Crappy quality, highly susceptible to interference, they can be snooped on...
