web browser.

The user interface presents information about the

FRITZ!Box product, access and connections. This is where

FRITZ!Box.

The user interface can be opened from any computer con-

nected with the FRITZ!Box. The settings you configure are

saved in the FRITZ!Box.

Password Protection

4.1

Password Protection

You can protect the FRITZ!Box user interface from unau-

thorized and unwelcome access by setting up a password.

Only users who know the password can access the user in-

terface. This protects all settings and all information in the

FRITZ!Box.

Please note the following once you have enabled pass-

word protection:

•

When the user interface is opened, the login screen

will be displayed first. Enter the password here to log

in to the user interface.

•

If you do not click on the user interface for a period of

longer than ten minutes, you will be logged off the

user interface automatically.

The next time you click on the user interface you

must log back in.

•

There are some pages in the user interface from

which the user is not logged off automatically. These

are pages that show constantly changing informa-

tion, which are refreshed automatically at regular

intervals. The “Overview” page is one example.

•

You can log yourself off the user interface by clicking

the icon with the padlock at the top right.

•

Be sure to use a password you can remember easily.

If you forget the password, the only way to access the

FRITZ!Box is to restore the factory settings. All set-

tings made during operation will be overwritten. Then

you can open the user interface again in order to re-

configure your settings or restore the settings you

saved during previous operation.

We strongly recommend setting up and using password

protection for the user interface.

Setting Up Password Protection

There are several ways to set up password protection in

the FRITZ!Box:

•

On the login screen:

As long as password protection is not enabled and

you have not switched off the prompt to use pass-

word protection, you will be prompted to set up pass-

word protection every time you open the user inter-

face.

•

In the “System / FRITZ!Box Password” menu:

In this menu you can set up password protection, or

change a password that has already been set up.

4.2

Saving Your Settings

The settings you made in the FRITZ!Box can be saved as a

file on your computer. This file contains all user-defined

settings, including the account information for the Inter-

net and telephony connections. This settings file can be

loaded back to your FRITZ!Box at any time.

The FRITZ!Box features a Wizard to accompany you step by

step through the process of saving and restoring your set-

tings.
