Due to the fact that Downer/Chorus have made a cock-up of my installation today (someone forgot to ask for permission to climb the pole 4 weeks ago), I was wondering if I could connect the FritzBox to my VF Cable modem and use it as a wireless router.

 

The unit is the FRITZ!Box 7490 and the connections on the back are;

 

DSL/TEL - FON1 - FON2 - FON S0 - LAN1 - LAN2 - LAN3 - LAN4

 

Has anyone else done this?

 

Thanks

Did you factory reset before starting the configuration process? Ive had the fritz go loopy changing between connection types.
