Forgot password to open the user interface?

The FRITZ!WLAN Repeater offers you two ways to access the user interface when you have forgotten your password:

  • "Forgot Password" Push Service

    The "Forgot Password" push service sends you an access link to the specified e-mail address if you have forgotten your password. With this link you again can access the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater user interface.

  • Resetting the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater to factory settings

    After resetting the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater to its factory settings you can open the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater user interface without a password.

    When the factory settings are restored, all of your personal settings are deleted and returned to their preset values. The installed version of FRITZ!OS remains intact.

No login (not recommended)

When the "No login" setting is selected, FRITZ!WLAN Repeater users are not prompted to enter a password. The user interface of your FRITZ!WLAN Repeater is not protected.

  • all FRITZ!WLAN Repeater users can change all FRITZ!WLAN Repeater settings
  • external attacks on your FRITZ!WLAN Repeater cannot be ruled out.

We strongly recommend setting up and using password protection for the user interface. Why should you protect the user interface with a password?

The password for the user interface is requested in the following situations:

  • when you want to open the user interface,
  • if you have not clicked in the user interface for longer than 10 minutes,
