Configuring an Internet Connection in FRITZ!Box
Once you have connected the FRITZ!Box to your Internet connection,
you must configure the Internet connection in the FRITZ!Box user in-
terface so that the FRITZ!Box can establish the connection to your In-
ternet Service Provider and connect to the Internet.
The sequence and number of steps required to configure your Internet
connection depend on the kind of connection, the desired operating
mode, and the Internet Service Provider.
6.1
Configuring an Internet Connection for DSL
If you have a DSL line, you received Internet account informa-
tion from your DSL or Internet service Provider. The Internet
account information is required to configure the Internet con-
nection.
Configuring an Internet Connection Automatically
If your Internet Service Provider arranges for the service of au-
tomatically configuring your Internet connection, the auto-
matic configuration will be performed right after the
FRITZ!Box is connected. No additional settings for the Inter-
net connection have to be configured in the FRITZ!Box. To
start automatic configuration, some providers require that
you enter a start code.
Configuring the Internet Connection Using the Wizard
With the Wizard it is simple to configure the Internet connec-
tion.
1.
Open the FRITZ!Box user interface (see
).
2.
Select “Wizards” in the menu.
3.
Click the “Check Internet Connection” Wizard and follow
the instructions.
Your Internet Service Provider also supplied information
about the configuration of your Internet connection. Always
perform the Internet connection setup as described by your
provider.
