8 Configuration and Operation by
Telephone
Many of the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN functions and features can be
configured and used over a telephone connected to a
FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN extension. Only tone-dialing (dual-tone
multifrequency = DTMF) telephones can be used in configura-
tion and operation. Pulse dialing telephones are not suitable.
The telephone network features can be used only if they are
supported by your telephone network carrier and enabled on
your telephone line.
Entries input on the telephone are confirmed with an ac-
knowledgement tone. Entries made correctly are confirmed
with a positive acknowledgement tone (a single tone of one
second in length). An error, such as an incorrect key se-
quence, is indicated by a failure tone, an intermittent tone at
intervals of about 0.25 seconds.
For more information, see the section “Audible Signals” on
page 15.
