FRITZ!Box Users
FRITZ!Box users are individual authorizations to access and use
the FRITZ!Box, which are linked with individual user accounts. A
FRITZ!Box user account is set up with a username and a password.
A FRITZ!Box user account has the following properties:
• Login using a FRITZ!Box account is possible from the home network
of the FRITZ!Box and, with the appropriate rights, also via the inter-
net.
• If you create a FRITZ!Box user account for a person, then that per-
son is granted rights to use selected areas and functions of the
FRITZ!Bo .
• A FRITZ!Box user does not have to be an actual person. You can cre-
ate a FRITZ!Box user for the purpose of bundling certain use rights.
For instance, you can create a Smart Home user who can access
only Smart Home functions.
• Every FRITZ!Box user logs in with their own username and a unique
password.
• You can set up as many as 18 FRITZ!Box user accounts.
You can configure the following rights for each FRITZ!Box user:
