Hello If you are in Switzerland you can only use this box as a time box Sunrise or UPC only let their junk run on the socket unfortunately. But like I did, you can set your box to bridge mode ipv4 Fritzbox manages your network. Runs tiptop Greetings

Can the Fritz! box be used with any cable network provider?

No, there is no free choice of modem in Switzerland. In my case, the box could not be activated (Sasag Kabelkommunikation AG in Schaffhausen), although my network operator sometimes includes the Fritz!Box 6690 with new subscriptions. Moreover, it is hardly worth returning it to Digitec because 10% of the sales value is charged. My tip: The Fritz!Box 4060 is a pure WLAN router with all Fritz functions and is cheaper than the Fritz!Box 6690.

Good day I bought the Fritzbox 6690 Cable. We have UPC Sunrise, socket with the 3 connections. In the package there is a coaxial cable with 2 screw connectors. However, I cannot connect this cable to the socket. I need an adapter, transition piece. Where can I get one? UPC of course does not offer anything, neither does FUST, MElectronics. Thanks for any information.

You can stop looking for an adapter/transition piece. If you find something suitable, it will not do you any good. On a coax connection from upc/Sunrise, only the boxes provided by upc/Sunrise can be used as the first device on the TV socket. Third-party devices such as the Fritzbox 6690 Cable are not supported. An own router is only possible after a box from upc/Sunrise. To do this, you can switch the upc/Sunrise box to bridge mode. You can also have this circumstance cross-checked at https://community.sunrise.ch.

I have just received this router. I know from various forums that I can only operate it as a "2nd router", which also works. I have also bought 4 FriztFon C6. But now I can't manage to use them because I can't enter the phone number. I was told by UPC that I can't use this phone via VOIP either, because I don't get the password. Now, of course, I ask myself why I can buy this FRITZBOx in Switzerland at all if I cannot use most of the features in Switzerland? Do I have to return the phone or is there a solution with UPC/Sunrise, Sipcall or possibly another provider?

Has anyone already had experience in Switzerland? I would very much like to replace my junk Sunrise Connect Box 2 with a router like this. According to Sunrise support, it should work "in theory". However, any liability and support is excluded. So I am in the situation without a clear answer and don't necessarily want to spend 280 CHF for a try... (I know bridge mode, but don't want to have 2 devices in operation)
