Internet Connection via Cable Modem
With an additional cable modem you can also use your
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7340 on a cable connection. Then the
Internet connection is established and controlled by the
FRITZ!Box itself, so that in this operating mode, too, all
FRITZ!Box functions (like Internet telephony, firewall) are
available without restriction.
1.
Use a network cable to connect the cable modem
with the "LAN 1" port on the FRITZ!Box.
2.
Connect a computer with the FRITZ!Box either wire-
lessly via WLAN or using a network cable.
3.
Open the FRITZ!Box user interface.
4.
Enable the expert setting of the FRITZ!Box in the "Sys-
tem / Expert Mode" menu. Confirm by clicking "Ap-
ply".
5.
Open the "Internet / Account Information" menu.
6.
On the "Settings" tab, select the connection type "In-
ternet connection via LAN 1" from the "Connection"
area.
7.
In the "Operating Mode" area, enable the option "Es-
tablish own Internet connection (NAT router with
PPPoE or IP)".
8.
In the "Account Information" area, select the option
"No account information required (IP)".
9.
In the "Connection Settings" area, enable the option
"Obtain the IP address automatically (DHCP)".
10.
In the input fields "Upstream" and "Downstream",
enter the relevant speeds of your Internet connec-
tion.
11.
Save your settings by clicking "Apply".
12.
Then restart the cable modem, for instance, by un-
plugging it briefly from the electrical outlet.
Now the Internet connection of the FRITZ!Box will be es-
tablished over the cable modem.
