While WiFi streaming cameras can be great, they are not the best choice for all situations. A selfrecording hidden camera that records to a memory stick is sometimes a better choice for certain situations. It all depends on whether you have internet access to set the camera up and whether you need a live video or just a replay of the footage later.

Setting up a WiFi camera is now much easier than it used to be Since we have been in the hidden camera industry for some time, we’ve seen many different internetstreaming cameras over the years. The technology has advanced rapidly since the first models were released a few years back. To stream, you needed a receiver that could be connected to your computer.

There were limited options and low quality. However, it is now easy to set up a camera. It is as simple as connecting your phone or laptop to your WiFi network.

For the best performance, you need a WiFi Broadband connection Hidden cameras can stream video at 1080P and 720P. This allows you to get the best view possible of an area or room, but it requires a faster internet connection to stream video smoothly. Broadband internet connections are common nowadays, and most people have the bandwidth to stream smooth HD video at speeds of 5–10 Mbps. However, those with slower connections need not worry as most WiFi hidden cameras will adjust the quality to suit their needs. It will automatically lower the resolution if you have a slow connection so that you don’t miss anything. Even at standard resolution, you can still see everything going on.

But what if something happens when you weren’t there? WiFi spy cameras can now record to internal memory or a hidden memory card. This allows you to record video 24/7 or in motion detection mode, depending on how it is set up. You can also see what happens if it doesn’t happen live. Check the specifications and features of each camera to ensure that they are correct. Some cameras can record on a memory card and you need to insert the card into your computer to view the videos. Other cameras let you remotely access your memory cards so that you can view them even while you are away.
