We're certainly going to ditch the Cowcam service. The farm ISP is BT at the moment but in the not to distant future I think we'll probably switch to Idnet anyway.
I think we will need IR illumination, simply because we don't light the cowsheds and being in the deep countryside ambient light levels at night are almost zero. The biggest of the sheds is about 30m by 25m, so I'm hoping an illuminator with a stated range of 45m will be enough.

At the back of the cowsheds there are no lights what so ever and the only available light is via the slatted wood on the cowsheds and we still achieve colour outside as the cameras enhance the light. IR gets absorbed by the ground, concrete or soil so if the IR light is poiting down it does not work very well. As I said this farm is in the Welsh hills with no available extra light.
