Configuring dialing rules in the FRITZ!Box

A dialing rule determines which telephone number the FRITZ!Box uses for for outgoing calls to a specific range of numbers (for example mobile telephone numbers) or to a specific telephone number.

For example, you can specify that calls to your company are always made using a certain internet telephone number.

Note:All instructions on configuration and settings given in this guide refer to the latest FRITZ!OS for the FRITZ!Box.

Configuring dialing rules

  1. Click "Telephony" in the FRITZ!Box user interface.
  2. Click "Call Handling" in the "Telephony" menu.
  3. Click on the "Dialing Rules" tab.
  4. Click the "New Dialing Rule" button.
  5. From the drop-down list "Number range", select which type of call the dialing rule should apply to. If you select the range "Telephone number", also enter a telephone number or number range.

    Example:
    Enter 020 if the dialing rule should apply to all calls to London.

  6. From the drop-down list "Connect via", select the telephone number that should be used for these calls. If you select "Internet", the FRITZ!Box uses the first internet telephone number entered under "Telephony > Telephone Numbers".
