A firewall on the computer with the FRITZ!Box USB remote connection can interfere with the communication between the software and the FRITZ!Box:

    • Or: Configure the firewall to allow incoming and outgoing TCP and UDP connections from port 2066 on the FRITZ!Box to any destination ports on the computer.

      Note:Refer to the manufacturer of the firewall for information on how to set it up, for example consult the manual.
