Configuring Internet Connections

The Internet access is set up in the FRITZ!Box user interface.

Internet access for the FRITZ!Box can be made available via two different

connection types:

°

Internet connection via DSL

With this kind of connection the FRITZ!Box can be operated as a DSL

router. In this case the DSL connection is established by the

FRITZ!Box, and registration at the Internet Service Provider is also

taken care of by the FRITZ!Box.

°

Internet connection via LAN 1 / WAN

The FRITZ!Box must be connected to an existing system via a net-

work, as a cable modem, or as a DSL router (see the connection in-

structions).

For this connection type the FRITZ!Box can be connected with an al-

ready existing Internet connection via the local network, an existing

DSL router or a similar means. In this case the FRITZ!Box is operated

either as an NAT router for the connected computers, or as an IP cli-

ent in the network that shares the existing Internet connection.

Then the LAN 1 port functions as an uplink or WAN

port.

The following section presents instructions for configuring Internet ac-

cess for both types of connection.

The Internet access is configured by setting up the FRITZ!Box for the se-

lected connection type and operation mode and defining the connection

settings. If necessary, enter the account information provided by your In-

ternet Service Provider.

tance in configuring the Internet access.

Using the

Configuration

Wizard

If you have connected the FRITZ!Box directly at the DSL port

and have account data from an Internet Service Provider at

your disposal, you can use the Configuration Wizard avail-

able in the user interface. With the Configuration Wizard all

of the necessary basic settings are performed in just a few

steps.

Manual
