AVM FRITZ!Box Parental Controls for User Accounts

Downloading AVM FRITZ!Box Parental Controls from the AVM Internet Pages and Installing Them on the Computer

  1. Go to the AVM website:en.avm.de
  2. Select "Service" and click on "Downloads".
  3. Select the "FRITZ!Box" entry from the "Filter" field.
  4. From the next field, select your FRITZ!Box model.

AVM parental controls are installed on the computer as a service. The service must be enabled at all times so that the FRITZ!Box detects the user accounts. If the service is disabled, the FRITZ!Box cannot recognize the user accounts and cannot apply the access rules configured for each account. User accounts that are not recognized by the FRITZ!Box are treated as user accounts without any parental controls configured.

Making a Windows User Known to the FRITZ!Box

  1. Log yourself on to the computer as the Windows user for whom Internet access is to be restricted.
  2. Connect to the Internet (e.g. by opening the web site avm.de/en in the web browser).

The Windows user is now displayed on the "Child Protection" page in the "Internet / Filters" menu of the FRITZ!Box user interface.
