FritzBox: “Power” flashes
Depending on the model, the LED on the far left bears the designation “Power”, “Power / DSL”, “Power / Cable”, “Power / LTE” or “Power / Fiber” – depending on whether the FritzBox is equipped with a modem. If the LED is solid green, there is a power supply and internet access is available. After a (re) start of the router, the LED flashes to indicate that it is establishing a connection to the Internet provider. This can take up to ten minutes. If the LED is still flashing after this time has elapsed, the connection is not established. Go through these steps until you find the cause:
- Call up the FritzBox menu (http://fritz.box/ in the address line of the browser) and click on system and Events. The router describes the problem here.
- Check the cables on the router and the DSL / cable socket or the fiber optic box. Are all cables firmly plugged in? Are the strings possibly damaged and could be defective?
- Is there a problem with your internet provider? Find out more from your provider or on the website Dysfunction.
FritzBox: “Info” lights up red
Every FritzBox has the “Info” LED. If it flashes red, the reason is usually a faulty telephone and internet connection or a failed update. Call up the overview page of your FritzBox to find out the exact error there. In the event of a faulty connection, check your provider data for Internet access under Internet and access data their correctness. If the update fails, restart your FritzBox by briefly disconnecting the power supply. If you have any problems, please contact AVM support.
FritzBox: “Info” flashes green
If the “Info” LED flashes green, the FritzBox is performing a system update in most cases. In this case, do not disconnect the power supply, as this can lead to a defect in the router! Other reasons for the LED to flash green are the transfer of the WLAN security settings to a USB stick and the registration of a DECT telephone or smart home device on the FritzBox. Under system and Buttons and LEDs you can assign events to the “Info” LED and be informed, for example, when a new message is available on the answering machine.
FritzBox: “WLAN” flashes
If the “WLAN” LED lights up continuously, the WLAN of the FritzBox is active. If it flashes, the FritzBox activates the WLAN. This is often the case after a restart or after changing the WLAN settings. If the “WLAN” LED does not light up, the WLAN is deactivated. Switch it on again by pressing the button next to the LED.
What does the “Internet” LED mean?
LEDs “Fon / DECT”, “FON” and “Fixed line”
Depending on the model of the FritzBox, this LED has a different name. During a phone call, the LED lights up continuously. A flashing LED informs (as with the “Internet” LED) of new messages in the provider’s mailbox.
What is the “DECT” LED all about?
“Connect / WPS” LED of newer Fritz boxes
The current FritzBox models are equipped with the “Connect / WPS” LED. If you press the button next to the light, the FritzBox searches for a device available for registration via DECT or WPS – the LED flashes during this time. If it flashes very quickly, the WPS connection has failed. This can happen, for example, if two devices try to register at the same time. Then repeat the login process with just one device.
