Child Protection: New Name

Select a name from the list of "Known Names" and click "Next". Enter the times when Child Protection should be enabled the next window.

Known Names

The "Known Names" list contains the names of the computers and users known to the FRITZ!Box.

Computers:
A computer is known to FRITZ!Box as soon as it accesses the Internet. If FRITZ!Box is unable to determine the name of the computer, the IP address of the computer is displayed in its stead.

User Accounts:
If multiple users use one computer, it makes sense to make their user accounts known as well. In order to make known the user accounts of a computer, you must install the "fritz!box-ChildProtection.msi" software on the computer. The software is installed on the computer as a service. The service must be enabled at all times for FRITZ!Box to be able to recognize the user accounts. If the service is disabled, the FRITZ!Box cannot recognize the user accounts and thus cannot apply the Child Protection settings for each account. User accounts that are not recognized by the FRITZ!Box are treated as user accounts without any Child Protection configured.

The "SYSTEM" Entry
The "SYSTEM" entry applies to processes that require automatic Internet access, like a Windows update, for instance. Such process should be able to access the Internet without restriction. The entry is included in the list only if you did not select the setting "All others may use the Internet without restriction" on the "Child Protection" page. With this non-selection you defined that the Internet can be accessed only by computers and user accounts for which you have configured access times based on Child Protection. This means that automatic Internet access is not possible.
In this case the "SYSTEM" entry is included in the list so that you can allow automatic Internet access in keeping with the Child Protection settings. Include the "SYSTEM" entry in your Child Protection settings with the following settings: Permit Internet use every day from 00:00 until 24:00 and set the online time to 24 hours per day.
