Updating FRITZ!OS
Overview
FRITZ!OS is the operating system of the FRITZ!Box. AVM regularly
makes new versions of FRITZ!OS available for your FRITZ!Box, free of
charge. Updates contain further developments and often new features
for your FRITZ!Box.
Always install the latest version of FRITZ!OS on all FRITZ! products in
your FRITZ!Box home network (
). This keeps your FRITZ!
products up to date and ensures optimum synchronization of all
devices in your home network. Regular updates also protect from
hacker attacks.
If you received your FRITZ!Box from your cable provider, you do not
have to do anything further: Updates for your FRITZ!OS will be
installed automatically by your provider. The features and wizards for
updates are not available in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
