Fritz! 6000 - Mesh of the FRITZ!Box

Mesh of the FRITZ!Box
Overview
Mesh connects FRITZ! products that support Wi-Fi to form an espe-
cially powerful Wi-Fi network with a single name and password. The
hub in the Mesh is always a FRITZ!Box configured as a Mesh Master. All
other FRITZ! products in the Mesh are Mesh Repeaters.
The FRITZ!Repeater 6000 supports Mesh in combination with a FRITZ!
Box with FRITZ!OS version 7.00 or higher; see page37.
Features in the Mesh
• In the Mesh, the FRITZ!Repeater automatically adopts the following
settings from the FRITZ!Box that is configured as the Mesh Master:
- Wi-Fi network name (SSID), Wi-Fi network key (password) and
Wi-Fi encryption
- Username and password for the user interface
- Wi-Fi guest access and Wi-Fi schedule
- Settings for automatic updates and for push mails
• By means of Mesh steering (band steering/AP steering), wireless
devices in the Mesh always connect with the home network via the
best access point.
• Updates for the FRITZ!Repeater and other FRITZ! products in the
Mesh can be performed centrally in the user interface of the FRITZ!
Box (Mesh Master).
• You can connect multiple Mesh Repeaters with each other (in se-
ries) to extend the Wi-Fi range in a certain direction.
