Setting up FRITZ!Box for use with a 1&1 line

The FRITZ!Box is optimally prepared for use with 1&1 and gives you unlimited access to all features, including internet, telephony, and television (1&1 HD TV).

Simply connect the FRITZ!Box to the DSL line. The FRITZ!Box is then automatically configured by 1&1. You only have to enter your personal account information in the FRITZ!Box user interface if automatic configuration is not possible.

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

1 Having your account information ready

  1. Have your personal account information that you received from 1&1 ready.

    Note:You will find the account information in the security letter that 1&1 sent you before activating your connection. If you did not receive your account information, contact 1&1.

2 Connecting the FRITZ!Box with your DSL line

  1. Insert the DSL cable (Y cable) into the "DSL" socket on the FRITZ!Box.
  2. Insert the cable end "DSL 1" into the DSL socket, leave the cable end "DSL 2" hanging. If you are using the FRITZ!Box on a VDSL bonding line, also insert the cable end "DSL 2" into the VDSL bonding socket.

    1. Click "System" and then "Backup" or "Reset".
    2. Click on the "Factory Settings" tab.
    3. Click the "Load Factory Settings" button.
      • Now the FRITZ!Box's factory settings are loaded and then the FRITZ!Box restarts. The connection to FRITZ!Box will be interrupted for about 1 minute.
    4. Open the FRITZ!Box user interface, click "OK" and then "Next".
  4. Select "1&1 Internet" from the drop-down list and click "Next".
  5. Enter the 12-digit "Start code" from the security letter from 1&1 and click "Next".
  6. Now the FRITZ!Box establishes a connection to 1&1 and automatically configures the internet connection and your internet telephone numbers. Configuration is complete as soon as an overview with your 1&1 telephone numbers is displayed.

    Important:If configuration fails, your internet access may not have been activated yet. In this case, contact 1&1.

4 Setting up telephony in the FRITZ!Box

Define which telephone number your telephony devices should use for making outgoing calls and to which telephone numbers the telephony devices should react to when you receive calls:

  2. Click "Telephony Devices" in the "Telephony" menu.
  3. Click the (Edit) button for the respective telephony device.
