Introduction
To be clear, a FritzBox can easily act as a SIP registrar and thus integrate VoIP phones just like ISDN or analog phones used to. However, the range of functions of the FritzBox is unfortunately not comparable with that of a professional telephone system (PBX).
This article is based on a test on a FritzBox 7390. It was tested on a Telekom All-IP connection.

If you want to connect a new Fritzbox to a Snom phone and need help setting up the Internet access, you can find a small guide in this article. |
OverviewThe configuration of a Snom device on the FritzBox is relatively simple. First you have to create a new telephony device in the FritzBox - type is IP phone.  Image Added
The user name and password are important here. | Info |
|---|
- The user name should have at least 8 characters.
- AVM changed the password rules. Now it has to be more safe. And it is no longer important how long it is, but i should have a combination of lower and upper case letters, numbers and special characters as usual. (Tested on a Fritzbox 7590 - FW Version 07.12)

Older Entry from 2018: The password must have exactly 8 characters, no more and no less.)

You should only allow registration from the Internet if you really need it. This is not necessary for an IP phone behind the Fritz Box and should therefore remain deactivated for security reasons. |
