Post by: Samz2 on August 27, 2009, 03:00:54 PM
Does anyone know of any good and relatively inexpensive wireless webcams for Mac?

The Linksys WVC54GCA (not the WVC54GC) and the Airlink101 SkyIPCam500W are the models we own, so they've both been tested extensively with iCam.  I think the Airlink is the less expensive of those two.

Hi,

I´m looking for the Linksys and in their website doesn´t show any compatibility with iMac. It is compatible with iMac?

Look their site: http://www.linksysbycisco.com/APAC/en/products/WVC54GCA?lid=LearnMore_WVC54GCA

Here is a good article detailing how to setup and use the Linksys WVC54GCA with a Mac if you don't have a Windows computer available: http://www.interarchitect.com/ia/?p=20

Is Linksys WVC54GCA works fine at night? A lot of people said me that it doesn´t works because it does not have led lights!
It´s true? ???

The Linksys WVC54GCA is not a night vision camera, no. The three night vision IP cameras that we have used are all by AirLink101:

AirLink101 SkyIPCam500 - http://www.airlink101.com/products/aicn500.php
AirLink101 SkyIPCam500W - http://www.airlink101.com/products/aicn500w.php
AirLink101 SkyIPCam747W - http://www.airlink101.com/products/aicn747w.php

About the Linksys WVC54GCA; motion capured images aren't sharp, you can't hang the thing outdoor, and at night it just gives you a black image, unless there is a streetlight of some kind.

It's acceptable, but not good.
