Re: Why Only DSL, Not Dial Up?

u can do it with dialup, but the frame rate will be low, say 2 to 4 frames
per second. the amount of data to transfer must be compressed greatly to
move across a dialup connection so the video is crappy

anyway, even slow band DSL at 112k is as cheap as crummy 28.8 dialup now a
days!

them thars' some fierce competition goimg on with those internet providers
my friend! shop around!!

Hello,

Many years ago, before "High-Speed Internet", when
"Internet" was still called Information Highway, when i
had a "Web TV"for going onto the Internet, there was
something "live"on the TV (that was what we used for our
"monitor" ) we could view of "live" scenes. The one scene
i remember was of a swimming pool area. We had no
cable; no DSL; only the Web TV box and electricity. The
thing putting the scene on the Internet was probably a
"Camcorder", but i donot remember what "they" called it.

Now iam installing video surveillance from a commercial Co.
and theyare telling me, in order to view the scenes on
Internet, i need DSL. The pictures on my tv, of my outside
surroundings, are in little boxes called "CAM1; CAM2;
CAM3 and CAM4, so i guess this is a "cam" system. How
come i cannot get the pictures on the Internet with dial up,
only with DSL, even though, many years ago, before DSL,
iwas able to get someone's swimming pool surveillance?

Or does someone know of a way to do this without DSL.
My IP gave me a static IP address. What is that, and how
do you use it?

Truly
