Comments about Swann SWA42-D2 Alpha D02 4-Channel 500GB H.264 DVR with Internet Viewing:

I purchased this product on 03/22/2012 & received it on 3/23/12, which was blazing fast. The installation was very simple, it works fine but the OS is a bit to pre-dated. I plan on contacting Swann Tech Support for more software updates. Could not get internet access part to work although I followed all of the instruction in the enclosed booklet. However this method of security is much cheaper than paying $40/month for a service without cameras. A least you have a record of the intruder, whenever he/she decides to stop by.
