Info
This is an overview of the development of the FRITZ!Box, showing the flagship model of each generation and model type. The first models did not have any number in their name, starting with the next generation AVM used the numbering system x0xx. x1xx, x2xx, x3xx, x4xx, x5xx for each generation of most models. For the full featured Fon WLAN models this sums up to 7 generations of model evolution.
