The ‘Port Forwarding’ Button
When FRITZ!Box is configured as a router (this is the default
setting), programs on your computer or LAN cannot be ac-
cessed from the Internet.
Click the “Port Forwarding” button to grant other parties from
the Internet restricted access to the computers connected to
FRITZ!Box by opening certain ports to incoming connections
Other parties then access your computer at the IP address
you were assigned by the Internet Service Provider. If a con-
nection is active, the IP address is displayed on the
“FRITZ!Box Overview” page and in the Event Log.
