yes the DVR is in the loft, easiest to get the external camera cables back to and more secure location. I'll research internal wireless cameras but fishing cables isn't too bad, done wiring on the house and being a builder I know all about the different types of floor and yet you still get the of surprise. when I get time I'll write a proper new post on the setting up of the DVR I have and wireless connection to the router.

I installed the system yesterday with two cameras, fixed a power supply up in the loft, and got the WiFi between the DVR and my router working, can view all on a PC now. didn't want to run a 30 ft cat 5 cable through two rooms, just taking the easy option. but does look like the units are fussy what WiFi dongle they'll work with and no list of tested compatible models. I'll go check on the model of my dongle and post it here later. now wondering if a wireless camera in the house could be connected back to the unit ?

great idea numb nuts, but I did make a breakthrough and the unit did display saying no adaptor found so assumed it didn't like the dongle, so I found an old d-link one, the unit accepted that said so, I then managed to get the unit linked wirelessly to the router. this is only in testing stage before final install the whole lot in the loft. the instructions for this section are not mentioned in the manual, and the rest is (cough)

HI, I have a Floureon H.264 DVR, the instructins say it supports WIFI instead of using LAN, but is it fussy with what WIFI dongle you use ? I bought a generic 300Mbps 802.11N USB adapter, used them before on the PC with Linux and work fine but no idea how to get the unit to tell me if it works with this adapter or not. Any help appreciated.
