Fritzbox 7270 as a repeater?
Hello, I have an old Fritz!Box (7270). My question is how do I access the user interface? I've connected it to my PC via LAN. When I go to fritz.box, it says: It looks like you're not connected to your FRITZ!Box in your home network. Please check your network connection! And when I enter the IP address, it says: Network connection failed. It doesn't work with Wi-Fi on my mobile phone either.
Since you no longer know how the FritzBox was configured at the time, you should first restore the factory settings. The FritzBox does not have a RESET button, so the factory setting can only be achieved with a software reset:
Access to the user interface should now also be possible! Now perform your configuration as a repeater. Don’t forget to bring your PC back to the net after work is done!
