Good bye!
I'd really like to change my home network router and I'm a bit inexperienced. Do I need my network provider to set up the router, or can I configure all the settings myself via the web interface?
Am I even allowed to buy a router myself or only the routers that my internet provider also sells?
Does my provider have to unlock the router's MAC address?
I am very grateful for your answers!

I use hotspot from my boyfriend's local SIM card while abroad, it worked fine for 2 weeks. Now, all of a sudden, I can't use it anymore because there's a ! next to the hotspot icon, and it requires "Login/Authorization." When I tap it, I'm redirected to the browser, where nothing happens. Neither of us…

Hi, I'm looking for a method to have multiple static (public) IP addresses privately Is it possible to install it on Pfsense or integrate it into the Fritzbox with VPN? Is that possible or is there a private contract with EWE where you can get multiple public IP addresses? Greetings Leon
Since 2016, “Routerfrei” has been valid and allows everyone to use their own router.
Whether you need to help your network operator, or whether it is sufficient access data that you have received with your contract, depends on your network operator and cannot be answered at the same time.
Does this also apply to Austria?
Such things should be written directly into the question.
I don’t know the Austrian legal situation.
Yes to use your own router is allowed.
There is a long way of free routers, which however gives a pre- and a disadvantage.
The advantage, it’s DEIN router and you can do what you want and you don’t have to pay rent anymore.
The disadvantage, the internet provider NOT help you with the setup of DEINES routers.
The disadvantage of a possible disturbance is exactly as great.
If the provider that the line is ok, you know that the error exists to your router, and since it is DEIN router, the troubleshoot is to be left to you and are also on your own.
To install/register certain data, you will receive certain access data from your provider. You need to enter this in your router SELBST.
The Internet provider will not help you.
Why also, as this is a foreign device.
But whether you hire a good router or buy yourself a good router, the same remains at the end.
In Germany there are free router choice,
in Austria partly Routerzwang. Here explains:

Basically, it must be suitable To be a router.
It is important Modem, there are several:
Look into your contract, there is the connection technology in it (VDSL, DOCSIS 3.1, LTE/5G, fiber).
Depending on the connection, a login to the Internet provider is required. The MAC address of the new router is often required for cable internet (DOCSIS).
Look at the homepage of the provider, there is an explanation of how/whether/which own routers are/will be used.
Good luck!
There is a free router choice, so you are not limited to the devices that your provider provides.
Whether the device has to be unlocked depends on the provider and cannot be answered in general
Internet access data, no more.
