Configuring MyFRITZ!
The MyFRITZ! service can be used only with a MyFRITZ! ac-
count. Register your MyFRITZ! with this FRITZ!Box account.
Once your FRITZ!Box is registered with your MyFRITZ! account,
the FRITZ!Box determines the public IP address each time it is
changed and conveys it to the MyFRITZ!. The FRITZ!Box can be
reached at this IP address in the Internet from anywhere in
the world. When you log in to MyFRITZ! you will be forwarded
to the FRITZ!Box using the IP address.
