Assigning numbers to telephony devices

You can assign outgoing and incoming numbers to the telephones and other telephony devices connected to your FRITZ!Box. This way, you can define which number each individual telephony device uses for making outgoing calls, and which numbers it reacts to when you receive calls.

1 Configuring telephone numbers

Configure all of your telephone numbers in the FRITZ!Box:

  1. Configure the internet telephone numbers in the FRITZ!Box.

2 Assigning telephone numbers

  1. Click "Telephony" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click "Telephony Devices" in the "Telephony" menu.
  3. Click the (Edit) button for the respective telephony device.

    Important:If the telephony device was not configured yet, click the "Configure New Device" button and follow the wizard's instructions.

  4. From the drop-down list "Outgoing Calls", select the number to be used by the telephony device for making outgoing calls. If you do not select a telephone number, the number entered under "Telephony > Telephone Numbers > Line Settings" is used for making calls.
  5. Select the telephone numbers to which the telephony device should react when you receive calls. You can select up to ten numbers (including the number for outgoing calls).
  6. Click "Apply" to save the settings.
