Telephone Numbers
Enter your telephone numbers in the "Telephony / Telephone Numbers" menu.
Setting Up a New Telephone Number
- Click the "New Telephone Number" button.
- Select whether you would like to set up an internet telephone number or a landline telephone number.
If you are not offered this selection, the landline network was disabled in your FRITZ!Box. To configure a landline telephone number, enable the landline network under "Telephone Numbers / Line Settings". For this the Advanced view must be enabled in the user interface.
- Click "Next" and follow the wizard's instructions.
Status of the Telephone Number
The symbols in front of the telephone numbers have the following meanings:
Symbol | Meaning |
---|---|
![]() | You can make calls over this telephone number. |
![]() | You can not make calls over this telephone number. For an Internet telephone number, check the telephone number settings. For a landline telephone number, check whether the FRITZ!Box is connected with the landline telephone jack. |
Using Preselections
Your telephone numbers are assigned preselections that can be used to dial a call. When placing a call, dial the preselection before the number you wish to call. It does not matter how your IP telephone is configured in the FRITZ!Box.
Example: You would like to call the telephone number 030123, and conduct the call using the your (own) telephone number 456. The telephone number 456 is assigned to the preselection '121#. So dial *121#030123
