FRITZ!Box 7490 50
Internet Connection over Wireless LAN
9.5 Internet Connection over Wireless LAN
You can use the FRITZ!Box at an already existing Internet ac-
cess over a wireless LAN connection. The FRITZ!Box is con-
nected with the radio network of the router or network. In this
type of connection the FRITZ!Box works as an independent
router to provide a network with its own network address
range.
The radio network of the router or network must fulfill the fol-
lowing requirements:
• The frequency range is the 2.4-GHz band.
• The connection is encrypted using WPA2.
• The radio network allows the FRITZ!Box to set up a wire-
less LAN connection.
1. Open the FRITZ!Box user interface, see page 32.
2. Select the “Internet / Account Information” menu.
3. Select the “Existing connection over wireless LAN” entry
from the “Internet service provider” drop-down list.
A list of the radio networks in the vicinity is displayed.
4. Select the radio network with which you want to connect
the FRITZ!Box.
5. Enter the network key of the radio network in the “Net-
work key” field in the “Security” area.
6. Click “Apply”.
The FRITZ!Box is configured as a router and the network range
is changed automatically.
The FRITZ!Box, along with the connected network devices,
forms its own self-contained network.
