Long distance PC webcam idea..
Hey everyone,
I've almost completed a plan for remote security monitoring, via several webcams/PC/DUN/monitoring software for a farm about 300 miles away.
I've found the monitoring software, have a basic [that is useless for any real work] PC in which I've installed a six slot USB card. I've got interior and local exterior camera slots and placement figured out. [Because dial up is the only thing available, I'm saving video files to an external, securely locked HDD, for retrieval via phone when possible, or on site when necessary.]
Here's the problem [and keep in mind I have never done anything like this before].
I'd like to place one or two camera feeds about 200 feet away, in an exterior structure. Both for "barn" monitoring, and there's some very interesting wildlife around that I'd like to catch on video if I could.
Any ideas on how to cover that distance with a USB device/cable...or something that might work instead?
I know this is an odd question, but thanks in advance...
