Wi-Fi Router mode
Wi-Fi Router mode uses your home Wi-Fi network to connect your video monitor. It enhances your local access by extending the connection range.
With the LeapFrog Baby Care app, your Wi-Fi router (not included) also provides Internet connectivity to your baby monitor system, allowing you to control your Baby Unit wherever you are.

(Direct or Wi-Fi) when connecting to the Baby Unit(s). Mobile app access will not be interrupted in Auto mode.

Protect your privacy and online security

LeapFrog cares about your privacy and peace of mind. That’s why we’ve put together a list of industry-recommended best practices to help keep your wireless connection private and your devices protected when online.

Ensure your wireless connection is secure.

• Before installing a device, ensure your router’s wireless signal is encrypted by selecting the “WPA2-PSK with AES” setting in your router’s wireless security menu.
  Change default settings.

• Change your wireless router’s default wireless network name (SSID) to something unique.

• Change to a unique and strong password.
  Keep your devices up to date.

• Download security patches from manufacturers as soon as they become available. This will ensure you always have the latest security updates.

• If the feature is available, enable automatic updates for future releases.
  Disable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) on your router.

• UPnP enabled on a router can limit
  the effectiveness of your firewall by allowing other network devices to open inbound ports without any intervention or approval from you. A virus or other malware program could use this function to compromise security for the entire network.
