AVM Stick & Surf Technology

With AVM Stick & Surf technology you can automatically transmit the WLAN secu-
rity settings of your FRITZ!Box to the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick and to your computer. 
For this, your FRITZ!Box must be equipped with a Type A port for USB devices (cf. 
the illustration in the margin).

If your FRITZ!Box is not equipped with such a port, you can use the FRITZ!WLAN control 
software to change the WLAN security settings. For more information, see the “Establishing a 
WLAN Connection” section.

In order to use the Stick & Surf technology, perform the following steps:

1.  Insert the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick into the USB port on your FRITZ!Box and wait until the 

“INFO” LED remains lit.

Connecting the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick with a FRITZ!Box

2.  Insert the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick into the USB port on your computer.

Connecting the FRITZ!WLAN USB Stick with a notebook

3.  After successful transmission of the security settings, the Stick & Surf logo is displayed 

on the screen.The WLAN connection between your FRITZ!Box and the FRITZ!WLAN USB 
Stick is established automatically.
