Again, thank you for your time and detailed explanation.  Lots of techy lingo, but I'll follow your steps and see what happens!  I'm excited over this technology.  If it functions as I hope, this will give my wife and I some peace of mind that is currently lacking

Very detailed information, that's great!  Can I have your recommendations on the system you would set up if no computer will remain on-site?  Since we are mostly off-site and there are renters or nobody present, I do not wish to leave a computer at the property.  I had hoped to use an internet camera with a remote on/off feature.  Thank you.

I'm learning quickly.  Just found "dropcam", which seems to be a plug-n-play device.  So, with with motion, I think what happens is I get an email notification to view the camera....yes?

My wife just told me about iCam.  I read the info but still don't fully get it    Hope you guys can help me understand.  Here's the deal, I have a vacation property in another state.  Our utilities have gone sky high since we changed cleaning crews.  My wife believes they may be using the property, since it is usually empty.  A motion activated internet camera, with messaging upon motion would be ideal to check up on the place.  How do I get going on this?

Besides having internet at the property, what else do I need to make this work besides a camera?  Thanks so much.
