    Hello

    are there any webcams that can work...let's say...10 km far from me ?

    For example, I want put a webcam in the main place of my city and see what's happening from my house, is this possible ?

    I wish also to control the webcam from my computer.

    The only possible wat to extend connection would be to use a line of sight microwave connection. 2.4 Ghz or 5.8Ghz range to get rid of interference. The only non licensed off the shelf tool that you could use.

    An open wifi connection nearby the webcam and/or with the permission of a wifi owner in the area.

    That's what I would look for a start.

    :)
