    It depends on what type of monitoring hardware and software and extra service you want.

    You can have your own wireless cameras and recorder and often today’s DVR recorders have an Ethernet port so you can monitor everything from the web from any place.

    They also make IP wireless cameras that have their own Ethernet plug right into the camera and the software built-in to the camera as well running as if they are their own server. So you can watch those cameras too right from the internet, anywhere.

    Today many people are buying their own DVR wireless systems that come with a PCI card that goes into your PC and allows you to record, watch, everything, right from the internet from anywhere in the world.

    You can buy nice 4 wireless cameras (waterproof), the receiver, the dvr card for your computer, everything you need, for less then $150.00.

    If you visit eBay look under the category for “Other Surveillance DRV” and you will find many complete wireless kits.

    It’s called cellular or radio backup. It uses cellular towers to communicate your alarm signals to the central monitoring station. Most popular is the Telguard TG-1; however, it will increase your monthly monitoring rate by about 8-10 dollars. It is very common, especially in new construction where customers are just not interested in paying extra for land lines. Additionally Time Warner is approved as a VOIP provider by most monitoring stations – meaning cable phone w/ Time Warner, no increased MMR and no need for the cell backup.
