Introduction
It is necessary to distinguish two modes of access to the configuration application of your box: the local mode and the remote mode. The remote mode is that offered by Free, the local mode by all the others.
A priori the remote mode is the most secure insofar as the configuration application is not hosted on your box, which means that even if someone was entering your network, it could not change the settings of your box. In this mode you use your internet browser to connect to a server on the internet. This offers the advantage of allowing you to make settings even if you are not at home. However, these settings will only be taken into account if you restart your box … You will have to have a large distance switch … In local mode, you also log in using your browser, but this time directly to the configuration application located on your box.
After this brief introduction, let’s see how you can access the configuration application of your box ..
The remote mode: directly consult the “Access to my free interface” sheet
Local mode: To be able to access your box, you must determine its IP address. If you do not know how to do it, the easiest way is to use the small program that we have concocted to you: ” Amabox »». This very light program which does not require installation will directly display your internet browser with the configuration interface of your box. To download it for free, go to the “Recommended Tools” section or directly to this address: http: // www.panoptinet.Com/Amabox
Access your Freebox V5 to adapt the settings
Open your internet browser and type the following address: https: // subcribe.free.FR/LOGIN/
You will note the use of the “HTTPS” protocol which indicates that you connect to a server which obliges to establish a secure communication encrypted. (cf. Theoretical sheet the secure protocols).
You must enter your identifier (this is the phone number of your fixed line or your email address at Free) as well as your password. This information is in the registration confirmation letter you received a long time ago, remember.
What to do if I don’t remember my identifiers anymore ?
Just click on the “Click” link located under the identification form.
Fill out the form with your identifier (you must know it) and your postal code. You will then receive your password by email. The e-mail used will be your email at Free or the email you have provided at registration.
What to do if I still can’t do it ?
You just have to contact Free Assistance at 3244 (free waiting time from a fixed line then 0.34 euros per minute).
Access your Freebox V6 to adapt the settings
To access the Administration interface of the Freebox V6, go to this address from your Internet browser: http: // mafreebox.freebox.Fr/.
During the first connection to this page, you will be asked to create a password. To attest that you are the owner of the box, you will also be asked to enter the Verification code which is displayed on the screen of the Freebox Server.
