Opening the FRITZ!Box user interface

You can easily open the user interface on all computers, smartphones, or tablets connected to the FRITZ!Box by entering the address http://fritz.box in a web browser. Then you can configure all of the FRITZ!Box functions and view detailed information about the product, your access, and connections in the user interface.

You do not have to set up the FRITZ!Box to open the user interface. Internet access is also not required.

Please note:

  • You can either enter http://fritz.box or the IP address of the FRITZ!Box (http://192.168.178.1 in the factory settings) to open the user interface. In addition, you can always use the emergency IP http://169.254.1.1 to access the FRITZ!Box.
  • It is not possible to call up the user interface via the guest access.
  • Always enter the complete address http://fritz.box. If you enter the address without the "http://" for example, the web browser may start a web search instead of opening the user interface.

  • If you connected two FRITZ!Boxes with each other, you can use the Mesh overview of the first FRITZ!Box to easily open the user interface of the second FRITZ!Box.
