In order to do this, you may verify that your FRITZ!Box is indeed connected to the internet and is correctly associated with the URL or IP address. Usually, simply restarting the router and the devices connected to it will solve this issue.
• Problems Related to IP Address or DNS Configuration: To fix this problem, you need to adjust the network settings and allow it to communicate with the FRITZ!Box. If that does not work, disconnecting the power for a few seconds might also do the trick.
