Finding your MAC address

For most models, the correct MAC address cannot be found in the web interface.

1. Visit the Fritzbox interface and log in. (Usually at http://fritz.box, http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.178.1)
2. Click Content at the bottom left
3. Click on "FRITZ!Box Support" at the bottom of the page
4. Select "Save support data" and download. This may take a few moments
5. Open the downloaded text file and search for the keyword "macdsl" to find the MAC address needed for registration.

Set up and connect

These instructions apply to models with a DSL port! We don't have any for other models yet.

1. Connect to the Fritzbox via WiFi or the 2nd LAN port.
2. Visit the Fritzbox interface and log in. (Usually at http://fritz.box, http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.178.1)
3. Click on "Internet" → "Access data".
4. Select "other Internet providers" for Internet providers, then "existing access via LAN" (or similar wording).
5. Connect the Fritzbox to the Ethernet socket in your room via the connection shown (usually LAN 1).
6. Confirm the selection with "Accept". The Fritzbox should reboot.

Alternative settings

If the settings described above do not exist or do not work:

• Select "other Internet provider" instead of "existing access via LAN".

In the settings that are then visible, the following options must be selected:

• Connection: "Connection to external modem or router"
• Operating mode: "Set up Internet connection yourself"
• Access data: "No"
