I saw someone who put a wirelss web cam on their saltwater reef tank to view during the day.

I looked into the Lynksys device and it seemed to be PC exclusive.

Does anyone have some advice on a wireless web cam for Mac?

I need wireless cause the tank is of course not in the same room with the computer and I know the area gets reception cause my XBOX is wireless connected to the net.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Any of the wireless web cam things should work if they display on a standard web page; i.e. to view the cam, you go to http://192.168.0.104 (or whatever the address of the web cam is).

Edit: The linksys WVC54GC (wireless/wired webcam) has this in the description that tells you that it should work without a problem: "Built-in stand-alone web server, no PC necessary"
