The 2.4 GigaHZ frequency range that this unit uses is also used by some cordless phones, wireless routers and other wireless devices. I set the first camera in a Breezeway between my house and garage about 50 feet from the receiver. When connected to a TV monitor the picture had a horizontal rolling bar and static like distortion. The sound was so filled by clicks and buzzes that nothing could be heard above it. I switched cameras and frequencies with the same result. I also moved the monitor closer to the camera with no improvement. I returned the product the next day. I can only conclude that the interference was caused by other wireless devices in my home or neighborhood.

The Q-See QSWOC2R wireless cameras do not work. I placed these cameras in various locations outside of my house, one within 20ft and the other within 50ft of the wireless receiver. When I turned on the TV to see what would be the output of these cameras, the one that was 20ft away, all I saw was fuzzy, grainy pictures. The other camera that was 50ft away showed nothing but static. These products are advertised as having "300ft of Transmission Line of Sight" and "The receiver can be kept up to 300 ft. away (in the line of sight) and still get great video images". This is 100% untrue and doesn't make sense. If the wireless receiver is supposed to be kept indoors and the cameras are made for the outdoors, how is the receiver supposed to be "in the line of sight"? Isn't that defeating the whole purpose of of having outdoors cameras that can view outdoor images from inside your home?

I called Q-See's tech support to see if they might have a solution to the problem. The guy I spoke to seemed to be somewhat clueless but suggested that my other wireless equipment such as my router might be interfering with the Q-See wireless receiver. So I unhooked my router and other wireless devices. None of this helped because I was still having the same problem with the cameras.
Please stay far away from Q-See QSWOC2R cameras because they do not work as advertised.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Low Quality Cameras, January 20, 2009

The cameras are small, very easy to use, but quality defeats the purpose of even having these running. Bought them to use for outside the house and the range was about 10 ft at most from the living room where the reciever was to the cameras outside. Very disappointing product.
