Configuring an Internet Connection in
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN
To configure the Internet connection, enter the Internet ac-
count information from your Internet Service Provider in the
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN. To do so, proceed as follows:
1.
Have the Internet access information you received from
your Internet Service Provider handy.
2.
Open the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN user interface and select
the “Settings” menu.
3.
Select the “Internet / Account Information” menu.
4.
Select the setting “Use one Internet connection for all
computers (router)” if this setting is not already config-
ured.
5.
Enter the account information you received in the ap-
propriate fields.
6.
Click the “Apply” button to transmit your entries to the
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN.
The FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN is now configured as a DSL router
and all connected computers can use the Internet access at
the same time.
Use the “Clear Internet connection automatically” function if
your Internet connection is charged for online time. This
function clears an idle connection after the period specified
here.
Establishing the Internet Connection
No further steps are necessary to establish an Internet con-
nection. Simply start an Internet browser on any of the com-
puters connected to FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN and start surfing
the Net.
Make sure the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN automatically assigns IP
addresses to all computers that are supposed to use this In-
ternet connection. For instructions, see the section “IP Set-
tings” from page 85.
