 Does not workNov 28, 2009
Great concept, terrible execution. I have (used to have) two add-on hidden cameras connected to the WiLife system with regular in-door camera.
Power connector on the back of the camera/clock simply does not connect, if you finally wiggle it into woking position, every time you dust around it or even walk by, you are risking disconnecting the power. After a while (for me it was 2 and 6 weeks), hidden camera stops connecting to the server, just works as a clock. Amazon replaced the first failed camera, replacement stopped connecting after a couple of weeks. At this point, neither of two cameras connect, just using them as clocks, even that is frustrating because after the power loss the time has to be set, and that is a project since while pressing the buttons, the clock is losing power.
I am dreading contacting Logitech support for warranty replacement, had terrible experience while installing the system: I could not connect any of the cameras to the server, their solution was 'install newer server software, we have an upgrade on the web-site', turns out that I was attempting to connect through USB hub, as soon as I plugged directly to the USB port on my computer, all three cameras connected.

Shoddy HardwareSep 15, 2009
Great idea but the cameras are a constant problem. I bought fourteen cameras for home and office. Within a year four died. They replaced them. By the end of the next year only six of the eighteen (14 plus four) are working. The exterior cameras are particularly bad. The "hidden" desktop camera has never worked properly. These products are very cheaply made and the manufacturer will not warrant them for more than a year. Even the ones that still work drop off line at various times and have to be "rediscovered". Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. If you plan to use these for security you are taking a chance.
It's cheap in the beginning but frustrating and expensive in the long run. Better to buy a DVR system. You get what you pay for.

Dies after a power glitchJun 18, 2009
The Logitech WiLife Digital Video Security indoor camera seems to consistently lose communications after a power glitch. Here in Southwest Florida we tend to have a few glitches during thunderstorms. The camera works well until we get a power glitch (rapid off and back on). Once that happens the camera is no longer recognized. The power line adapter that plugs into an outlet and then into a USB port on the computer seems to be the culprit. Sometimes I can get the camera recognized by unplugging the adapter and then plugging it back in after 30 seconds. Other times it seems I have to unplug the camera and plug it back in and finally sometimes I actually have to reboot the computer. That isn't too bad unless of course you are gone for an extended period and want to rely on the camera as a security monitor. All in all, probably not worth the price.

 Good but a bit touchy.Apr 03, 2009
I like this product for how it blends in to the decor, has great photo imaging; however the cord is touchy and will quit working at times.
