Local Network All of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box constitute a network and can share access to any files released for file sharing.
Internet All of the computers connected to the FRITZ!Box can access the Internet.
The FRITZ!Box works as a DSL router, making the Internet connection available to all connected computers. All connected computers can then use the Internet connection at the same time.
Firewall The FRITZ!Box is equipped with an integrated firewall. The integrated firewall protects your network from attacks from the Internet as long as the FRITZ!Box is operated as a router.
USB Port The FRITZ!Box is equipped with two ports for USB devices, to which you can connect USB storage devices (hard drive, stick), a printer, one of the AVM FRITZ!WLAN USB Sticks, a USB hub or other devices (see “USB Hubs” from page 63).
The USB port supports the USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 standards.
If you use one of the FRITZ!WLAN USB Sticks by AVM, the
AVM Stick & Surf technology is at your disposal. Use
Stick & Surf to adopt the WLAN security settings from the
FRITZ!Box quickly and conveniently.
For connecting a printer, FRITZ!Box has a printer server. Alternatively, the USB remote connection is available for the use of printers.
Media Server An integrated media server makes music, image and video files available in the local network. You can either save these files directly in the integrated memory of the FRITZ!Box or make them available via a USB memory stick connected to the FRITZ!Box. A suitable playback device linked to the local network can then play back these media contents. Any device compatible with the UPnP AV standard can be used.
