Requirements
For mobile access:
LeapFrog mobile app
Network Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi router 2.4GHz 802.11 b/g/n
Internet connection 1.5 Mbps @ 720p or 2.5 Mbps @1080p upload bandwidth per Baby Unit
Direct mode
The Parent Viewer and the Baby Unit of your video monitor connect to each other in Direct mode by
default, which allows you to stream live video right out of the box. Direct mode connection lets you
stream live video from the Parent Viewer only.
Tip:
• You may experience reduced signal strength if your Parent Viewer and Baby Unit are far apart, or there are
obstructing factors, such as internal walls, between them. Move the Parent Viewer closer to the Baby Unit to
improve the signal strength. You can also set up Router mode to connect the units via your home Wi-Fi network
to improve the connection between your Parent Viewer and Baby Unit.
Wi-Fi Router mode
You can continue using your video monitor
with Direct mode connection, or you can set
up your monitor in Router mode connection.
Router mode uses your home Wi-Fi network
to connect your video monitor. It supports live
video streaming through the Parent Viewer
and smartphone app.
We recommend that you set up your monitor
in Router mode to enjoy live video streaming
via your Parent Viewer with an enhanced
connection.
If you want to stream live video remotely with
your mobile device, download and install the
LeapFrog mobile app. With the mobile app,
your Wi-Fi router (not included) provides
Internet connectivity to your HD video monitor system. It serves as a communicating channel
between your Baby Unit and mobile device, allowing you to monitor and/or control your Baby Unit
wherever you are. For more details, see Download app for mobile access section in this Parent Guide.
Notes:
• Your Parent Viewer detects the connection signal strength. If you have connected your video monitor with your
home Wi-Fi network, your Parent Viewer automatically switches to direct or router mode - whichever has a
stronger signal strength.
• When both Parent Viewer and app are viewing the camera simultaneously, the video quality will be optimised
to deliver the best possible viewing result.
