Use FritzBoxShell With "Login With Password" instead of user and pass in FritzBox 7590 ?

Hello,

I have to use Login with password in my FritzBox 7590 for an other service to work. Is there any way I could use this amazing tool without logging in to my router via username and pass ? Can I "Login With Password" in FritzBoxShell ?

I just tried this as well. Simply leave the username empty and enter the password ...

Hi there and thanks for taking the time to answer ! I had already tried to leave username blank before I post here but it did not work. I am running FritzOS 6.88 because on FritzOS 7 I had some problems with some scripts that would not run properly, so… for the time being I am forced to stay on 6.88 and there I can't seem to authenticate properly. Could you please tell me what would be the complete command to REBOOT the fritzbox via FritzBoxShell ? I want to do a re-check but I think the authentication problems might go away If I update on FritzOS 7. Are you on FritzOS 7.20 ?

I'm indeed on Fritz!OS 7.21:

$ ./fritzBoxShellTest.sh
[...]
NewModelName FRITZ!Box 7490
NewSoftwareVersion 113.07.21

To test your connection to the Fritz!Box, you can execute the test script (like above), which will then output available commands (if you can't authenticate, most of them will not be available).

I just tried the ./fritzBoxShellTest.sh and indeed I cannot authenticate properly. Although the command WLAN_5G 0 disables the 5G Band and 1 enables it again. So it is only some of the functions that fail to work (like Reboot) probably due to authentication issues..
Thanks for confirming that you are on FritzOS 7 ! I will post again what happens when I update to FritzOS 7 ! Thanks a lot for your help !

Unfortunately I could never test it with releases prio to FritzOS 7. Did you update? Still problems? If not I propose to close the issue. Thanks.

Cheers,
Johannes

It never worked on 6.88 sadly ! But on a different Fritzbox With FritzOS 7 it works beautifully ! I found an old tool that can reboot the fritz and it works on 6.88 also. So, in the meantime I use that. Thanks for everything jhubig ! Amazing tool !
