Setting up the FRITZ!Box for use with a Movistar line
The FRITZ!Box is optimally prepared for use with Movistar. Simply connect the FRITZ!Box to the router from Movistar and enter your personal account information in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
The complete FRITZ!Box range of functions for internet, telephony, and smart home is then available to all of the devices in the home network without restriction.
Important:IPTV playback is not supported by the FRITZ!Box. Therefore, connect the Movistar set-top box directly to the Movistar router.
