Configuring FRITZ!Box Users and FRITZ!Box Password
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 two options for
logging in to your FRITZ!Box:
•
Login with a general FRITZ!Box password that grants general
access to all areas of the FRITZ!Box. This login method is the
default setting in the FRITZ!Box.
•
Login with a personalized FRITZ!Box user account, with which
access to the FRITZ!Box can be configured differently for each
user.
FRITZ!Box Password
A general FRITZ!Box password is already configured for your
FRITZ!Box upon delivery. The preconfigured FRITZ!Box password for
your FRITZ!Box is printed on the FRITZ!Box service card “FRITZ!Notes”
and on the type label on the bottom of the housing of your FRITZ!Box.
With the FRITZ!Box password you can specify the following:
•
You can replace the preconfigured password with a FRITZ!Box
password you choose yourself.
•
Every user who logs in with the general FRITZ!Box password has
the right to access all contents and settings on the FRITZ!Box.
•
Login using the FRITZ!Box password is possible only within the
FRITZ!Box home network.
FRITZ!Box users
In order to control access to your FRITZ!Box for each person individu
ally, you can set up FRITZ!Box users. FRITZ!Box users are individual
authorizations to access and use the FRITZ!Box, which are linked with
a personalized user account.
