Setting Up Do Not Disturb for a Single Telephone

In the FRITZ!Box you can set up Do Not Disturb for individual telephones that are connected with the FRITZ!Box via a FON port or DECT.

Do Not Disturb keeps a telephone from ringing at specified times. Missed calls then appear in the FRITZ!Box call list.

Note:No Do Not Disturb settings can be configured in the FRITZ!Box for connected IP telephones or smartphones. Set up Do Not Disturb directly on the telephones.

Configuring Do Not Disturb (Standard view)

If the standard view of the user interface is enabled, configure the Do Not Disturb setting as follows:

  1. Select "Telephony / Telephony Devices".
  2. Open the settings of a telephone by clicking the "Edit" button
  3. Switch to the "Do Not Disturb" tab.
  4. Enable the "Individual setting" option.
  5. Select the weekdays on which the Do Not Disturb function should be enabled.
  6. Enter the times of day at which the Do Not Disturb function should be turned on and off on the selected days.
  7. Click "OK" to save the settings.

When you enable a Do Not Disturb setting for an ISDN telephone at the "FON S0" port, the Do Not Disturb setting always applies to the port, and thus for all connected ISDN telephones.
