Opening the FRITZ!Powerline user interface

You can easily open the user interface of your FRITZ!Powerline device on all computers, smartphones, or tablets in the home network using the Mesh Overview of your FRITZ!Box under "Home Network > Mesh". In the web browser, enter the address fritz.box. You can configure all of the functions and view detailed information about the product, your access, and connections in the user interface.

Clicking on the device name opens the user interface of the FRITZ!Powerline device

Please note:

  • To open the user interface of the FRITZ!Powerline device with the FRITZ!Box's Mesh Overview, the FRITZ!Powerline device must be connected with your FRITZ!Box.
  • If you have not yet connected the FRITZ!Powerline device to your FRITZ!Box or are using the FRITZ!Powerline device with another router, you can either enter http://fritz.powerline or the IP address (http://192.168.178.2 in the factory settings) to open the user interface.
Entering the complete address in the address field
  • Always enter the complete address http://fritz.powerline. If you enter the address without the "http://", for example, the web browser may start a web search instead of opening the user interface.
