I would like to be able to hook it up to my computer system through my wireless network. Anything affordable out there?
Answer
"Affordable" means different things to different people.
All the IP or Network cameras will do what you want - remember, wireless is not totally accurate. The camera still needs a wire for power.
Do you need color? Night vision? How far does the night vision need to be?
Because the cams are on your LAN, they get assigned an IP address and you get to them through a browser on your computer. There is no "system" - it just depends if you want the computer to record the camera activities. IP cameras are typically more expensive than the analog cameras.
Another method is to get the wireless 2.4 GHz analog cameras and feed the video into a multi-channel DVR like

Since the DVR would get assigned an IP address, then you access the DVR - not the individual cameras. Some of the DVRs require you to buy a hard drive, too - 250 gig or 500 gig HDDs are pretty cheap...

What is a good home security camera system?
Gary
I am looking for an home security camera sytem that I could link with my tv on it's own channel.
Any suggestions?
Trying to stay below $400, I could do any wiring myself. I live in South Florida so it gets to be around 90 degrees on average. Just a standard resolution in color. Night vision would be a big plus but not needed. If it could be directed to the video input on a receiver that could work also. Would want it to store recordings.
Answer
Analog, composite video? There are lots.
On its own channel? Some RF modulators can be expensive, especially if you want to select the channel. Easier if you just use one of the other video inputs that are not in use.
What is your budget?
What resolution are you looking for?
Will the video need to be recorded and stored? If yes, what surveillance DVR are you looking at?
Only one camera?
Is night vision required? If yes, how far does the camera need to see in darkness?
Does the camera need to be outdoor rated?
Does it snow where you live? If yes, you may need a housing with a heater unit.
Does it get REALLY hot where you live? If yes, you might need a housing with a cooling system.
Is the video signal to be wired or wireless?
Is there power available where you plan to install the camera?
Is the camera going to stay in one position or is pan/tilt/zoom control required?
You have not provided enough information for anyone to provide you a good recommendation.
