Logging in with the User Interface as a FRITZ!Box User
Overview
When you open the user interface of your FRITZ!Box, you will be
prompted to log in. This login serves to keep your FRITZ!Box secure
and protects access to the user interface.
You have the following options for logging in to your FRITZ!Box:
• For the first login with the FRITZ!Box, use the FRITZ!Box password
preset for your FRITZ!Box.
• After the first login, you can create one or more FRITZ!Box users.
FRITZ!Box users are individual authorizations to access and use the
FRITZ!Box, which are linked with a individual user account. Every
FRITZ!Box user account has a username and a password.
FRITZ!Box Password
For the first login to the FRITZ!Box, a general FRITZ!Box password is
preconfigured, which works without a username. The preconfigured
FRITZ!Box password is printed on the FRITZ!Box on the “ Notes” ser-
vice card or on the type label on the bottom of your FRITZ!Box.
The FRITZ!Box password has the following properties:
• Login with the FRITZ!Box password without a username is possible
only within the FRITZ!Box home network.
• Every user who logs in with the FRITZ!Box password without a
username has the right to access all contents and settings on the
FRITZ!Box.
• For the FRITZ!Box password, the FRITZ!Box automatically creates a
FRITZ!Box user with a username composed of the letters “fritz” and
a four-digit string of numerals, for instance, “fritz1234”. The
FRITZ!Box uses this user account internally whenever you log in
with the
home network with the FRITZ!Box password and without a
username. This automatically created user account cannot be
deleted.
