17 Saving Energy with FRITZ!Box
The FRITZ!Box combines a variety of devices in one device: VDSL and
ADSL modem, WLAN router and media server. This means that you
generally use much less power with the FRITZ!Box than you would
with several separate devices.
What is more, the FRITZ!Box saves energy by reducing processing
power on standby and lowering the power consumption of idle func-
tions. The FRITZ!Box also offers various settings for energy-saving op-
eration.
17.1 Saving Energy with the Wireless LAN Radio Network
You can reduce the power consumption of the wireless LANra-
dio network by
• setting up night service for the wireless radio LAN net-
work (see page 83).
• turning off the wireless LAN radio network with the
“WLAN” button whenever no more wireless devices are
registered on the FRITZ!Box.
• reducing the transmitter power of the FRITZ!Box. You can
adjust the transmitter power using the “Maximum trans-
mitter power” setting in the “WLAN > Radio Channel”
menu of the FRITZ!Box user interface.
The current energy consumption of the total FRITZ!Box sys-
tem is displayed on the “Overview” page. From there, click
with the mouse to view the “Energy Monitor”, which displays
details on the energy consumption.
