Okay, I have a job tomorrow, a big one. I need to set up a surveillance system for this guy that will allow him to access cameras from a remote location.

This is the kit he wants:

My concern is, they use analog video composite connections, so we would need a video capture card to hook them up to a computer.

I want to use the program LogMeIn to allow him to access his computer from a remote location. Any good guides on setting up Wake On Lan?

My ideal set up for him:
1) Wake On LAN
2) Log Me In for him to gain control of the computer
3) Whatever capture program I'd install to give him control of the cameras

This is the capture card I think will work.

A few questions:

Will that work? Those 4 cameras with the hub, connected to the capture card to the PC, using Wake On Lan to wake up the computer and LogMeIn to access the computer from a remote location?

I can't find reviews on those parts to make sure they work really well.
