Tips on saving energy

Your router’s firmware will update automatically as soon as a new version is available. If you do not want to wait for the automatic update, you can download and install firmware manually. 

Once you have set it up, save your Internet-Box configuration. After replacing the router, you will then be able to restore your settings (e.g. device names).  To do this, go to web portal > Internet-Box > Save configuration and choose whether to save it online in My Swisscom or locally as a file on the device.

If your home is connected to the fibre-optic network, you will usually have a fibre optic socket. This shows the OTO number or OTO ID – a sequence of numbers and letters for identification.
