Setting up FRITZ!Powerline in the Mesh

FRITZ!Powerline adds an additional wireless access point to your home network quickly and easily. This way you will have ideal Wi-Fi reception and high-speed connections to the internet and home network, even when outside the Wi-Fi range of your FRITZ!Box.

Since the FRITZ!Powerline device is integrated into the FRITZ! Mesh during setup, it adopts all of the Wi-Fi settings from your FRITZ!Box, such as access information and guest access, and can be used directly by all of the wireless devices in the home network.

There are several ways to connect FRITZ!Powerline with your FRITZ! home network. Which connection type makes the most sense for you depends on the FRITZ!Powerline model being used and the operational environment.

1 Connecting the FRITZ!Powerline device with the FRITZ!Box via powerline

Connection scenario for powerline bridge mode

A powerline connection to the FRITZ!Box makes sense if

  • you want to place the FRITZ!Powerline device outside the Wi-Fi range of the FRITZ!Box or another repeater in the home network.
  • you want to integrate a device without Wi-Fi support, for example an IPTV receiver, into the home network via the LAN port on the FRITZ!Powerline device.
  • it should be possible to reposition the FRITZ!Powerline device quickly and easily if necessary.

2 Connecting the FRITZ!Powerline device with the FRITZ!Box via LAN

Connection scenario for LAN bridge mode

A LAN connection to the FRITZ!Box makes sense if

  • you want to place the FRITZ!Powerline device outside the Wi-Fi range of the FRITZ!Box or another repeater in the home network.
  • it is possible to establish a LAN connection to the FRITZ!Box from where the FRITZ!Powerline device is being used, for example using the existing cabling in your home.

3 Connecting the FRITZ!Powerline device with the FRITZ!Box via Wi-Fi

Connection scenario for wireless bridge mode

A Wi-Fi connection to the FRITZ!Box makes sense if

  • you want to place the FRITZ!Powerline device within the Wi-Fi range of the FRITZ!Box.
  • you want to integrate a device without Wi-Fi support, for example an IPTV receiver, into the home network via the LAN port on the FRITZ!Powerline device.

4 Connecting the FRITZ!Powerline device with another repeater via Wi-Fi

Connection scenario for wireless bridge mode using a different repeater (cascading)

A Wi-Fi connection to a different repeater in the home network makes sense if

  • you want to extend your home network in a specific direction beyond the Wi-Fi range of the other repeater.
  • the other repeater is a Mesh Repeater, regardless of whether it is a FRITZ!Powerline device, FRITZ!Repeater or FRITZ!Box.
