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 default passwords to unique, strong passwords. A strong password:
    • Is at least 10 characters long.
    • Does not contain dictionary words or personal information.
    • Contains a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, special characters and numbers.

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.

How the system works

How the system works?

LeapFrog-LF1911-High-Definition-Wi-Fi-Camera-fig-13

  • Your home Wi-Fi network provides Internet connection to your camera so that you can monitor and control your camera whenever you are through the LeapFrog Baby Care+ App.
  • Your Wi-Fi router (not included) provides the Internet connectivity, which serves as a communicating channel.

Test the Location for the Camera

LeapFrog-LF1911-High-Definition-Wi-Fi-Camera-fig-14

If you plan to install your camera to a designated location, and will use your home Wi-Fi network to connect your mobile device, test whether your selected monitoring areas have good Wi-Fi signal strength. Adjust the direction and distance between your camera, mobile device and Wi-Fi router until you have identified a suitable location with good connection.

Note: Depending on surroundings and obstructing factors, such as the effect distance and internal walls have on signal strength, you may experience reduced Wi-Fi signal.

Mount the Camera

Mount the Camera (Optional)

Notes

  • Check for reception strength and the camera viewing angle before drilling the holes.
  • The types of screws and wall plugs you need depend on the composition of the wall. You may need to purchase the screws and wall plugs separately to mount your camera.
  1. Place the wall mount bracket on a wall and then use a pencil to mark the top and the bottom holes as shown. Remove the wall mount bracket and drill two holes in the wall (5.5mm drill bit).
  2. If you drill the holes into a stud, go to step 3.
    • If you drill the holes into an object other than a stud, insert the wall plugs into the holes. Tap gently on the ends with a hammer until the wall plugs are flush with the wall.
  3. Insert the screws into the holes and tighten the screws until only 6.5mm of the screws are exposed.LeapFrog-LF1911-High-Definition-Wi-Fi-Camera-fig-18
  4. Place the camera on the wall mount bracket. Insert the mounting studs into the wall mount holes. Then, slide the camera forwards until it locks securely. Align the holes on the wall mount bracket with the screws on the wall, and slide the wall mount bracket down until it locks into place.LeapFrog-LF1911-High-Definition-Wi-Fi-Camera-fig-19
  5. You can maximise your camera viewing angles by tilting the wall mount bracket.
    • Hold the camera, and then rotate the knob in an anti-clockwise direction. This will loosen the joint of the wall mount bracket.
    • Tilt your camera up or down to adjust to your preferred angle. Then, rotate the knob in a clockwise direction to tighten the joint and secure the angle.
