Direct mode
The Parent Viewer and the Baby Unit
are pre-paired and can connect to
each other directly in
Direct mode
by
default, which allows you to stream
live video right out of the box.
Wi-Fi Router mode
Router mode
uses your home Wi-Fi
network to connect your baby monitor
system. It enhances your local access
by extending connection range.
With the LeapFrog mobile 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.
If you plan to install your Baby Unit to a designated location,
and will use your home Wi-Fi network to connect your video
monitor, test whether your selected monitoring areas have
good Wi-Fi signal strength.
Check the Parent Viewer’s Wi-Fi signal strength by going to:
> Configure Wifi > Connection Status.
Adjust the direction and distance between your Baby Unit,
Parent Viewer, and Wi-Fi router until you have identified a
suitable location with good connection.
