Does this security system require wifi?

Not necessarily if you have some other way to record. We have wireless Internet and we each have a IPhone. So we have our security system connected so we use our lap tops to record and see every thing live on our phones when we are away from the house. I think I read in the comments someone had recorded to an old VHS recorder.

No, It is a stand alone system for viewing. If you want to record, then you can connect it to your computer or laptop. But you do not need wifi.

These sensors work with the Honeywell and 2GIG alarm system. They don't use wifi. I think wink uses zwave or some other mesh network. These use a different technology for security.

yes and no, it'll operate without WIFI as a basic thermostat but without internet and a local WIFI network it can't be controlled or monitored remotely.

I purchased mine to work with my current security system, which I do pay for. Interested in hearing if others are able to use it, remotely, free of fees.

No- I have base camera upstairs and monitor downstairs and it works great. Every now and then I do have to unplug the video camera and re plug to reset the connection. Great monitor even in pitch dark and works within longer distance range. No wifi needed.

Chris, Yes; this system ships with WiFi (Wireless 802.11 b/g/n) capabilities installed.

It won't work without internet access for the remote camera to work, since you have to run your computer 24/7 at the location. Save your money and stay away from this security system. Do a little research, and buy a quality unit.

It's wireless, you have to input your network security key, in the settings.

None required. System powers through the phone line. I have 5 at my shop and just bought a system for my Church. Great system!

NO WIFI needed.The camera communicates directly to the monitor, I am very satisfied with mine and use it to monitor my driveway.

You have to configure the WiFi from the settings and enter your access code if you have security.

Yes. You need to have wifi or to connect it to a router with an ethernet cable.

No need for a formal security system but want to monitor part of your home or business operation remotely from your Smartphone?

No. It only gives you security for an open wifi like at a hotel or boosts an existing wifi signal.

Yes you can password protect wifi signal by using "WEP or WPA/WPA2" from "Security" options in main menu.
