What is Fritz Connection?
Fritz Connection is a specialized skill designed to interface with AVM FRITZ!Box hardware directly. By leveraging the fritzconnection Python library and the TR-064 API, this tool provides developers with deep visibility into their home network. As part of the Openclaw Skills ecosystem, it allows for seamless monitoring of real-time traffic statistics, connected device logs, and telephony data.
This skill serves as a bridge between your AI agent and your network infrastructure. It offers a structured way to query router uptime, external IP addresses, and bandwidth limits while maintaining a high standard of security for destructive actions like reboots or network resets. This makes it an essential component for users looking to integrate network management into their automated workflows.
Fritz Connection Use Cases
- Monitoring real-time bandwidth consumption and total data volume received or sent.
- Listing all active and inactive devices in the local network with IP and MAC address details.
- Automating router maintenance tasks such as requesting a new IP address or performing a system reboot.
- Tracking and logging incoming, outgoing, and missed phone calls from the router's internal log.
- Managing system-wide WLAN settings, including toggling the guest network for visitors.
How Fritz Connection Works
- The user configures router credentials and the host IP address in the environment variables.
- The skill initializes a connection via the TR-064 API using the underlying fritzconnection logic.
- The agent dispatches requests to specific router services such as WANIPConnection, WLANConfiguration, or Hosts.
- The skill processes the TR-064 response dictionary or AHA-HTTP XML data into a structured, human-readable format.
- Critical actions like rebooting or reconnecting trigger a safety check within the Openclaw Skills workflow to ensure user consent.
Fritz Connection Setup
To install this skill, navigate to your workspace and set up the Python environment:
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/fritz-status
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
Configure your router credentials in ~/.openclaw/skills/.env:
FRITZBOX_HOST=192.168.178.1
FRITZBOX_PASSWORD=your_password
Fritz Connection Data Schema & Taxonomy
The skill organizes data by mapping TR-064 services to specific router functions. Below is the primary metadata taxonomy:
| Service | Function | Data Points |
|---|---|---|
| WANIPConnection | Connection | External IP, Uptime, Connection Status |
| WANCommonInterfaceConfig | Traffic | Downstream/Upstream rates, Bytes Sent/Received |
| Hosts | Inventory | Device Name, IP, MAC, Activity Status |
| WLANConfiguration | WiFi | SSID, Channel, Standard (ax/ac), Enable/Disable |
| X_AVM-DE_OnTel | Telephony | Call Type (Incoming/Outgoing/Missed), Number, Timestamp |
Fritz Connection Advanced Features
- Real-time call monitoring using the FritzCallMonitor library for instant event-based triggers.
- Support for dual API interfaces: TR-064 for network configuration and AHA-HTTP for Smart Home device statistics.
- Targeted WLAN control allowing independent management of 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and Guest networks.
- Support for DECT-based Smart Home automation, including switching sockets and reading thermostat data.
- Extensible CLI interface that can be integrated into larger monitoring scripts or dashboards within the Openclaw Skills framework.
