The FRITZ!Box is optimally prepared for use with Init7. Simply connect the FRITZ!Box to the DSL line and configure the internet connection in the FRITZ!Box.

The complete FRITZ!Box range of functions for internet, telephony, and television (TV7) is then available to all of the devices in your home network without restriction.

Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.

    Note:Init7 sent you the account information via email after you concluded the contract with them. If you did not receive your account information, contact Init7.

2 Connecting the FRITZ!Box with your DSL line

How to connect the cables depends on which socket your telephone socket has:

  2. Insert the longer end of the DSL/telephone cable (Y cable) into the "DSL" socket on the FRITZ!Box.
