Internet Connection via the Mobile Telephone Network
In situations where DSL is not available, you can use your
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7340 to connect to the Internet via
the mobile telephone network. A USB modem for mobile
Internet access (UMTS/HSPA) is required for this.
The USB modem is simply inserted into the USB port of
the FRITZ!Box.
The FRITZ!Box supports UMTS/HSPA modems from various
manufacturers.
When the mobile telephone network function is used, the
FRITZ!Box user interface presents information about net-
work availability, connection status and transmission rate.
1.
Insert the USB modem into the USB port on the
FRITZ!Box.
2.
Open the FRITZ!Box user interface.
The “Overview” page is displayed.
3.
Click the “Home Network / USB Devices” menu. On
the “Overview of Devices” tab, the USB modem is
displayed as a “Mobile telephone network modem”.
4.
Click “Enable mobile telephone network modem
now”.
The “Mobile Telephone Network” menu opens to let
you set up the USB modem.
5.
Configure the settings for your Internet connection
over the mobile telephone network. For more infor-
mation, see the Online Help of the FRITZ!Box.
The “Mobile Telephone Network” menu is not avail-
able until the USB modem has been connected to
the FRITZ!Box. From this point on the menu is always
available, even when the USB modem has been dis-
connected.
