1 Preparations

Configuring MyFRITZ!
Register the FRITZ!Box with MyFRITZ!Net so that it can always be reached on the internet at a fixed MyFRITZ! address:
Maintaining a permanent internet connection
The following step is only necessary if the FRITZ!Box establishes the internet connection over DSL / WAN:

- Click "Account Information" in the "Internet" menu.
- Click on the "Internet Connection" tab and then on the "DSL / WAN" tab.
- Click "Change connection settings".
- Enable the option "Maintain permanently (recommended for flat rates)". If the option is not shown, the FRITZ!Box is already permanently connected to the internet.
- Click "Apply" to save the settings.

3 Accessing FRITZ!NAS over the internet
