In building one, there is my wireless router connected through wires to 1 pc and my adsl modem. The aerial connected to this is an external aerial allowing building 2 to get the adsl signal.

I have been researching these and have not found what I want so constructive suggestions would be welcome. I have found the CCTV camera that fits my needs but it is not available in an IP version. Is anyone aware of a device that takes the video camera output and adds the IP elements to it? This would seem to be a most useful device. Peter Crosland

Is there any way to use SNMP to acquire the external IP address of a NAT router? I'm after persuading my (homemade) dynamic dns client to function over the NAT link, and short of abusing the system by auto-updating every five minutes, or using an external host, I can't think of a way to do it. The only thoughts I've had have been DHCP (apparently no good by my reading anyhow) or SNMP.
