Linksys WVC54GCA update - and davey400 is a legend...

As you may have gathered the instructions for this product are pretty useless.  There are so many useful pieces of information that they don't bother to share with you, for example, how to stream direct to your website from the camera without having to bother with third party software, after all, as an IP camera having to use a computer to stream its picture makes it kinda pointless... after a lot of hunting around I came across this forum.  Its worth scanning through as it kinda makes a pretty good point and is a little amusing.  Thanks to Linksys not telling you how to do it, there's a knowledge gap for everyone else to go around the houses trying to fill, as have I.  The last posting is genius.  Its the guys first ever posting and kills everyone else stone dead.  Well done davey400 whoever you are!

p.s just incase their forum ever closes, here's his posting again
