The FRITZ!Box is optimally prepared for use with edpnet. Have edpnet activate the FRITZ!Box, connect the FRITZ!Box to the fiber optic connection, and enter your personal account information in the FRITZ!Box user interface.

The complete FRITZ!Box range of functions for internet, telephony, and smart home is then available to all of the devices in your home network without restriction.
