Overview

You only have to set up a MyFRITZ! account once. It exists no matter
which FRITZ!Box was used to create it. You can register as many
FRITZ!Boxes as you like with one MyFRITZ! account.

Switching to a Newer FRITZ!Box

If you trade in your FRITZ!Box for a different FRITZ!Box model some
day, simply register the new device with your existing MyFRITZ!
account and delete the old device there. If you created a bookmark for
access via MyFRITZ! in your web browser, this bookmark will then
route you to the user interface of the new FRITZ!Box.

Registering Multiple FRITZ!Boxes

If needed, you can also register multiple FRITZ!Boxes with your
MyFRITZ! account. Each FRITZ!Box is then registered with the
MyFRITZ! account via its own user interface.

Instructions: Using an Existing MyFRITZ! Account

For instructions, see the Online Help at: “Internet / MyFRITZ! Account”.
