#4Way to go germany. Seems like they truly try to weaken all homegrown companies that have any relevance in electronic products whatsoever.
Germany & it's economy is just a mere shell of what it was. Their right extremists & nazis gain more acceptance & influence everyday. While the economy seems to be hopeless.
Let's just hope this doesn't end up like last time.

Right. Real not-Nazis would have let their domestic companies continue breaking laws and engaging in illegal schemes to fix/inflate prices for consumers. We live in terrifying times indeed.

Should we just let companies do whatever they want instead??

If Fritz Boxes would actually be a good product...frequent internet drops, which a simple restart fixes, is that normal for routers from other brands? As a German, I don't know, because I've been forced to use these shitty Fritz Boxes my entire life.

As a German who lived a prolonged time abroad, I might have a perspective. I wasn't actually aware that I would be forced to use Fritz products here, but they certainly seem omnipresent. My 7530AX performs actually flawless, no complaints there. I wished it would offer more functionality, e.g. NFS, ability to force some clients to use either 2.4 or 5GHz (to circumvent a current bug in the Nokia G20) or make it easier to upload Linux on them, but I wouldn't call it a bad product. I'd rather give it 4 out of 5 stars. I liked my Linksys WRT54GL, but that was very dated (too slow to exploit the 50Mbps connection to the Internet and no 5GHz) when I finally left it behind during the last move. The Dlink product (713p?) I used (much) earlier was poor, with buggy firmware not supported or maintained by the manufacturer after sale.
Dropping Internet connections which are fixed by a restart sounds to me like a marginal connection (the restart forces a re-learn of DSL parameters). The Fritz box should be able to diagnose that.

Fritzbox is a shit show. Their router is not yours (no access to the OS). Their router only works with their DECT telephone (ask me how i found out).
Fritz is the Microsoft of internet access in Germany.

Oh boi, your comment is nothing but uninformed propaganda.
AVM is way past "home-grown" with sales of over 620 millions and a profit of 60-80 millions. The owners have been preparing to selling AVM for a year now, to a private equity investor, which should be closed in the very near future.
And above all, AVM broke the law. But from your comment it sounds like law is a concept you do not approve much, do you?
