Integrated Fax
The FRITZ!Box is equipped with an integrated fax function
so that you can receive faxes without having to connect a
fax machine. The integrated fax machine forwards incoming faxes to an e-mail address, or stores them on a USB
mass storage device connected to the FRITZ!Box.
For operation, the integrated fax machine must be set up
using the Wizard for Telephony Devices in the FRITZ!Box
user interface. Enter an e-mail address to which incoming
faxes should be forwarded.
If the FRITZ!Box is connected to an analog fixed line with
only one number, remember to enable automatic fax detection as well. The fax detection works passively, meaning that it does not detect an incoming fax until a call has
been accepted. For this reason we recommend also using
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7270 44

the Wizard for Telephony Devices to set up an answering
machine, so that fax detection can also function when you
do not accept a call.
The integrated fax machine of the FRITZ!Box supports only
fax reception. To send faxes you can install the “FRITZ!fax
for FRITZ!Box” software. This program can be downloaded
from the AVM web site for the operating systems
Windows Vista, Windows XP and Windows 2000.

to your computer or your local network.
USB Network
Memory
The FRITZ!Box offers you the possibility of making USB
mass storage devices available in the Windows network
as network drives (Samba). Files in the USB memory then
can be opened and processed directly on the USB mass
storage device.
Files are supported up to a size of 2 GB.
Access to USB network memory is only possible if the USB
remote connection is not enabled for USB storage devices.
Musikbox With this command music files on the USB mass storage
device can be played back by compatible devices (streaming). The hard drive with the music collection is simply
connected to the USB port of the FRITZ!Box and a suitable
playback device is integrated into the local network.
The devices automatically communicate via Universal Plug
& Play (UPnP). This technology allows the devices connected to each other by cable or radio network to perform
automatic detection, recognize events, and exchange data
with each other accordingly. With UPnP-AV this technology
has been expanded to audio and video contents.
With the Musikbox, music files of all kinds of formats can
be made available from the connected USB memory via
UPnP.

USB Printer
8.4 USB Printer
To connect a USB printer to the USB port of the FRITZ!Box,
you can either enable the USB remote connection, or use
it as a network printer.
USB Printer at the USB Remote Connection
If you enable the USB remote connection for USB printers,
then you can use the printer on another computer just as if
it were connected directly to your computer.
If you want to use the printer with the USB remote
connection enabled, then the program for the USB remote connection (see page 60) and the suitable
printer drivers must be installed on any computer
that is supposed to use the printer.
When the USB remote connection is enabled, all-in-
one printers (printers with supplementary fax or
scanner functions) can also be used for faxing and
scanning.
If your printer is equipped with a status monitor, you
can use this feature when the USB remote connection
is enabled.
Host-based printers that work according to the GDI
system, for instance, and require bidirectional communication for status messages, can only be used via
the USB remote connection. These printers usually
can be used only with an operating system for which
the printer manufacturer has provided driver software. Such printers connected to the FRITZ!Box are
not supported as network printers.
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7270 53
USB Printer as a Network Printer
USB Printer as a Network Printer
When configured as a network printer, the USB printer can
be used simultaneously by all of the computers connected
to the FRITZ!Box.
If you want to use the printer as a network printer, the
printer port must be configured, and the suitable
printer drivers installed, on every computer. Print
jobs are forwarded to the IP address of the printer
server in the local network via the printer port.
Only printers that can be addressed with the device
class “Printer” are supported as network printers.
This is generally not the case for some multi-function
devices, for instance combined fax-scanner-printers.
If your printer is equipped with a status monitor, it
may not be possible to use the status monitor if the
printer is operated as a network printer.
For multi-function devices (printers with additional
functions like fax or scanning), only the printing function is supported for network printers.

Tips for Using USB Devices
8.8 Tips for Using USB Devices
When using USB devices at the USB port of the FRITZ!Box,
please keep in mind the following;
If more than one USB device without its own power
supply is connected to the FRITZ!Box, please note
that, in accordance with the USB specification, the
total current consumption may not exceed a value of
500 mA. Otherwise unspecified malfunctions with
the USB devices or even damage to the FRITZ!Box
may occur.
AVM expressly advises against performing firmware
updates for USB devices connected to the computer
via the USB remote connection on the FRITZ!Box.
Before removing a USB storage device, select the
“Remove safely” option in the FRITZ!Box user interface to prevent losses of data.
To avoid damage to the FRITZ!Box, only operate USB
storage devices that require more than one USB port
for operation (for instance hard drives with a Y cable)
if they have their own power supply or a USB hub with its own power supply.
AVM has no influence over external interference to
the USB memory devices on the FRITZ!Box. Thus such
phenomena as voltage spikes during storms may occur, and writing to older USB memory devices may
corrupt the data structure due to a high number of
defective structures. In such cases a complete loss of
data may occur.
Therefore AVM recommends always making a security copy of the USB memory content so that your data
are not irretrievably lost just because losses may occur on the USB storage device.

connection status, provides information about the course
of data transmissions, and allows the Internet connection
of FRITZ!Box to be established or cleared from the computer.
FRITZ!Box takes care of dialing into the Internet, firewall
protection from unauthorized incoming connections, and
keeps track of data volume and online time.

FRITZ!DSL Protect
9.3 FRITZ!DSL Protect
FRITZ!DSL Protect protects your computer from unwanted
Internet connections, supplementing the firewall functions of your FRITZ!Box. With FRITZ!DSL Protect you can
check all Internet connections that are established or
accepted by local programs on your computer. You can
permit or prohibit individual programs from accepting
connections: If an unknown program attempts to establish
an Internet connection, you will be asked whether you
wish to allow such a connection.
An overview shows the programs already set up in
FRITZ!DSL Protect along with their access rights. A Journal
grants you an overview of all successful and rejected attempts to access the Internet.
One of the most convenient functions offered by FRITZ!DSL
Protect works in combination with the UPnP capability of
the FRITZ!Box. If you have enabled the option “Allow
changes to security settings over UPnP” in the FRITZ!Box,
FRITZ!DSL Protect can release ports for incoming connections on the FRITZ!Box whenever they are needed by programs. For this capability you must activate the “Use Port
Forwarding” option in the “Settings” of FRITZ!DSL Protect.
In this manner you can participate in online activities like
gaming without having to reconfigure the FRITZ!Box firewall functions manually.

FRITZ!Box Keypad Sequences
Many of the FRITZ!Box functions and features can be configured and used over a telephone connected to a
FRITZ!Box extension. Only tone-dialing (dual-tone multifrequency = DTMF) telephones can be used in configuration and operation. Pulse dialing telephones are not suitable.
The telephone network features can be used only if they
are supported by your telephone network carrier and enabled on your telephone line.
Acknowledgment
Ton e
Entries input on the telephone are confirmed with acknowledgement tones (see also “Audio Signals” on
page 71):
Entries made correctly are confirmed with a positive
acknowledgement tone (a single tone of one second
in length).
If the entry was not successful, because of an incor-
rect key sequence, for instance, you hear a negative
acknowledgment tone (an intermittent tone broken
into intervals of about 0.25 seconds).

Call forwarding is performed by the ISDN operator’s
switching station. To use call forwarding, FRITZ!Box must
be connected to an ISDN line. Then this feature can be
used to forward calls to an external line. Call forwarding is
subject to charges by the network provider and cannot be
used to forward calls to Internet numbers.
In addition to call forwarding, there is also call diversion
via FRITZ!Box. Use this kind of call diversion to divert calls
to internal and external lines. See the section “Call Diversion” on page 80 for more information.
Do not activate both call forwarding and call diversion at

Call Diversion
Call Diversion
Incoming calls to the FRITZ!Box telephones can be diverted to a different extension or to an external number. In
contrast to call diversion over FRITZ!Box, there is also call
forwarding (call diversion via the central exchange). How
to use call forwarding by telephone is described in the
section “Call Diversion on the ISDN Line” on page 75.
Do not activate both call forwarding and call diversion at
the same time.
Call diversion allows you to forward calls to an external
line or to another extension. This kind of diversion is organized inside FRITZ!Box so that diversions to another extension are free of charge. Calls are diverted to an external
number over your ISDN line’s second B channel and are
subject to normal transmission charges. If the FRITZ!Box is
operated on an analog telephone line, incoming calls can
only be diverted to a different extension or to Internet
numbers.
Note that only numerical Internet telephone numbers can
be entered for diversion to an Internet telephone number.
You can specify the conditions under which an incoming
call will be diverted. You can select one of five different
options. Different settings may be saved for each extension.

you want this number to remain concealed so that the caller does not know that the call has been picked up at
another extension, you have the option of suppressing
transmission of the connected line’s number. The caller’s
display will continue to show the number dialed.

Once the party can be reached again and conducts a call
from her or his phone, this function recognizes when this
conversation is ended. Your phone then rings. When you
pick up your handset, the number of the desired party is
automatically dialed again.
“Call Back on No Response” can be used both for external
and internal connections.

One-time Explicit Transfer on the ISDN Line
One-time Explicit Transfer on the ISDN Line
Explicit Call Transfer (ECT) is an ISDN feature that must be
enabled by your ISDN carrier and thus usually is subject to
extra charges. If ECT has not been enabled on your line,
you can program the telephone system to initiate a onetime explicit call transfer before connecting to two parties.
When you end the connection, the other two parties will
be connected to each other.
