Setting up the FRITZ!Box for use with a DSL line from Swisscom
The FRITZ!Box is optimally prepared for use with a DSL line from Swisscom. Simply connect the FRITZ!Box to the DSL line and enter your personal login information in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
The complete FRITZ!Box range of functions for internet, telephony, and television (blue TV) is then available to all of the devices in your home network without restriction.
Note:FRITZ!Box 7690, 7590 AX, and other FRITZ!Box models are among the DSL modems/routers tested and approved by Swisscom (see BBCS Proved Equipment List).
