Fritz! 6000 - Functions

Functions
Extending the Wi-Fi Network
The Wi-Fi network of an internet router (FRITZ!Box) often does not cov-
er all rooms in an apartment or a house. The FRITZ!Repeater 6000 ex-
pands the Wi-Fi network of the router. With the FRITZ!Repeater, wire-
less devices like computers, tablets and smartphones get a connec-
tion to the internet router even where its Wi-Fi network is weak or can-
not be received at all. You can use the FRITZ!Repeater 6000 with any
router you like.
Three Wi-Fi Radio Units
The FRITZ!Repeater 6000 has three Wi-Fi radio units: Two are for com-
munication with the wireless devices in the 2.4-GHz band and in the
5-GHz band. The third radio unit provides for optimized communication
with the wireless router. This radio unit maintains the connection to the
FRITZ!Box in the 5-GHz band.
Encryption
The FRITZ!Repeater supports connections with the WPA (Wi-Fi Pro-
tected Access) standard for encryption and authentication in Wi-Fi net-
works. In this standard, WPA3 mode offers the highest security. The
FRITZ!Repeater supports WPA3 in combination with the common WPA2
mode, since there are still only a few wireless devices that support
WPA3.
“WPA2 (CCMP)” mode is preconfigured in the FRITZ!Repeater.
Connecting Network Devices
Computers, smartphones, media receivers and other network devices
can be connected in the following ways:
• via Wi-Fi
• by LAN cable
