Entering landline numbers in FRITZ!Box
You want to configure your telephone numbers in the FRITZ!Box to make phone calls over the landline with them? ✔ It's easy with this guide.
Once you have connected your FRITZ!Box to your landline (analog or ISDN), you can immediately make telephone calls from the landline without having to configure any additional settings. You must only enter your landline numbers if you have more than one number and you want to
- assign a landline number to a particular telephone or other telephony device.
- configure a convenience function offered by the FRITZ!Box for a landline number, such as call diversion or dialing rules.
Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.
