Setting up FRITZ!Box for use with a Sky WiFi line
To use the FRITZ!Box with Sky WiFi, simply connect the FRITZ!Box to the internet connection and configure the internet connection and telephony in the FRITZ!Box. 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.
Important:Sky is currently converting internet connections to the MAP-T protocol, which is not supported by FRITZ!Box. On an internet connection with MAP-T, connect the FRITZ!Box with the router from Sky and proceed as described in the guide Setting up the FRITZ!Box for use with another router.
Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.
1 Connecting the FRITZ!Box
- Either connect the FRITZ!Box to the DSL line or use the "LAN 1" port to connect the FRITZ!Box with the fiber optic modem (ONT, Optical Network Termination). For detailed information, refer to the quick guide included with the FRITZ!Box and the manual.
2 Configuring the internet connection in the FRITZ!Box
- Open the FRITZ!Box user interface.
- Enter the FRITZ!Box password given on the type label of the FRITZ!Box and click "Log In".
- Click "Internet" and then "Account Information".
- Select "other internet service provider" from the drop-down list.
- If you are using the FRITZ!Box on a fiber optic connection:
- Enable the option "Connection to an external modem or router" in the "Connected via" section.
- Enable the option "Establish own connection to the internet" in the section "Operating Mode".
- Enable the option "No" in the section "Account Information".
- Enter the speeds of your internet connection in the "Downstream" and "Upstream" fields.
- If you are using the FRITZ!Box on a DSL line:
- Enable the option "Connection to a DSL line" in the "Connect via" area.
- Enable the option "No" in the section "Account Information".
- Click "Change connection settings".
- Enable the option "Use VLAN for internet access".
- Enter 101 in the field "VLAN ID".
- Click "Apply" to save the settings.
- Now the FRITZ!Box checks whether the internet connection can be established. Configuration is complete as soon as the message "The internet connection check was successful" is displayed.
Important:If the internet connection check fails, your internet access may not have been activated yet. In this case, contact Sky.
