Many models of the FRITZ!Box-Family and their Telekom-Derivatives which do not support VDSL can use an external VDSL modem to connect to VDSL lines. Many models with an USB-Host port can connect to UMTS, LTE or 5G using a respective USB stick or external USB modem. This section will collect information about compatible devices. This all is no AVM hardware. |

UMTS-Modems[edit]
External UMTS modems to be connected to a Box-Model's USB host port.
This list was started in FRITZ!OS 4.9x / 5.0x times when AVM released a modem compatibility list[1].
Since then AVM improved the compatibility to USB modems horribly, but this list is still interesting for older models.
