5.3 Into the Internet With FRITZ!web
In addition to the traditional ISDN services such as file
transfer or telefax, FRITZ!X USB also supports Internet
access. You can explore the World Wide Web, exchange e-
mail or enter chat rooms.

Defining the Default Provider
After installing FRITZ!web, specify which of your Internet
Service Providers (ISPs) is your default connection to the
Internet. The default connection is automatically on stand-by
when FRITZ!web starts. When data from the Internet is
requested, for example, when your Web browser starts up,
the connection is dialed up automatically.
