Hi Tom I am in South Norfolk, the area im in is like the Bermuda triangle, we are the last to get anything remotely related to modern communications, we have only just had 3G boosted, 4G? whats that. The providers wont bother with 4G here, its only in bigger towns at the moment, places like Norwich & Lowestoft. So im stuck with using 3G for the moment. Cheers Mike

Hi All Thanks for the replys so far. Ive seen on youtube a guy from Ireland setting up and selling a system, almost perfect fro my needs BUT, he uses a DVR, i would need to use an NVR due to not being able to physically power the cameras in their location, he also uses a 3Three dongle and external booster. He doesnt mention it cutting out tho. I would be interested in industrial 3G hub. It basically needs to work, i dont want to be messing about in complicated network settings every few days. So if any recomendations for industrial 3G systems please let me know. Lastly would an NVR support working with a 3G system or would it need to be permanently connected to a laptop, and a 3G dongle into the laptop? Is Hikvision a good make to go for, ive only looked at them as they seem to be mentioned so often. Cheers Mike

Hi All Im from the UK and have a question regarding a remote location that had no phone line but has got 3G coverage. Is it possible to buy an off the shelf cam and DVR system and connect this to a 3G hub so that i can get alerts on my iphone if an alarm is activated, say after everything has been closed for the day and also i want to be able to dial into that hub to look at the live video of the camera to see whats going on, during an alert condition or otherwise. There is an astounding array of cameras so im very confused over what i should be looking at getting. Any help welcomed, im not techy, so ill need any replies in easy to understand answers. I have tried to use Swann cameras from Maplins before, but found that they never worked and in hte end took them back for a refund. Cheers Mike
