Rated 5 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 5 out of 5 by EASY INSTALLATION THIS IS A REALLY GOOD PRODUCT. IT HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR THE LAST 12 MONTHS WITH NO PROBLEMS. SETUP WAS SO EASY. YOU CAN GET IT RUNNING IN NO TIME. ALL YOU NEED IS TO SETUP THE CAMERAS AND A STATIC IP. EASY ACCESS THROUGH IPHONE AND IPAD USING THE ORIGINAL SWANNVIEW PRO APP FROM THE APPLE APPSTORE. I JUST CAN'T VIEW ON A MAC, BUT IT WORKS ON WINDOWS USING THE APP PROVIDED OR USING IEXPLORE. REALLY WOULD RECOMMEND IT. March 10, 2013
