Client for child protection of user accounts

Downloading the client from the AVM Internet pages and installing it on the computer

  1. Select the "Settings / Programs" menu in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click the "Start Download" button in the "FRITZ!Box Child Protection" area.
  3. Download the program to your computer.
  4. Install the program by running the EXE file.

The program 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.

Making a Windows user known to the FRITZ!Box

  1. Log yourself on to the computer as the Windows user for whom Internet access is to be restricted.
  2. Connect to the Internet (e.g. by opening the web site www.avm.de/en in the web browser).

The Windows user is now displayed in the "Settings / Advanced Settings /Internet / Child Protection" menu of the FRITZ!Box user interface.
