Information on Keypad Codes
Overview
Various FRITZ!Box functions can be configured and operated using a
connected telephone without opening the user interface. These include
not only telephony functions like the alarm, Do Not Disturb and call
diversion, but also other functions. For instance, you can switch wire
less LAN on and off, and restore the factory settings to the FRITZ!Box.
How It Works
Keypad codes are combinations of keys (for instance,
#811*1*), which you enter on the telephone keypad.
