FritzBoxShell
(Image credit: https://avm.de/presse/pressefotos/?q=7490)
Introduction
The script allows you to control/check your FritzBox from the terminal with a shell script. It is planned to add more functions in the future. The shell script uses cURL to create an SOAP request based on the TR-064 protocol to talk to the AVM Fritz!Box and AVM Fritz!Repeater.
To change state of the LEDs in front of the Fritz!Box or activate the keylock (buttons on the can be activated or deactivated) the TR-064 protocol does not offer the possibility. Therefore the AHA-HTTP-Interface is used. This only works from firmware version 7.10 and upwards.
Please raise an issue with your function you would like to add.
Become a part of it!
If you want to check out if your AVM device actually works with this script, you can do so by executing fritzBoxShellTest.sh. It prints for (almost) every Service/Action pair if they delivered data when called.
Authentication is handled exactly as described for fritzBoxShell.sh.
The result is a list written to the console containing the names of the checked service and actions followed by the result of the check. Finally, the device type and firmware version are printed (of course only if this functionality was accessible!).
As an example - the result for my Fritz!Box:
WLAN_2G STATISTICS43 is working!
WLAN_2G STATE6 is working!
WLAN_5G STATISTICS43 is working!
WLAN_2G STATE6 is working!
WLAN STATE12 is working!
LAN STATE8 is working!
DSL STATE0 is not working!
WAN STATE16 is working!
LINK STATE0 is not working!
IGDWAN STATE28 is working!
IGDDSL STATE15 is working!
IGDIP STATE48 is working!

Installing, configuring and first script execution
Head over to the Wiki pages to get all the information: https://github.com/jhubig/FritzBoxShell/wiki/Installation,-Configuration-&-First-test
Arguments/Enviroments
You can use variables or arguments. However, arguments are visible in the process list and are therefore not recommended for passwords.
If these arguments or environment variables are not set, then the values from the fritzBoxShellConfig.sh are used.
Here an example (This will enable the 2.4 Ghz network on the box with the following IP):
./fritzBoxShell.sh --boxip 192.168.178.1 --boxuser foo --boxpw baa WLAN_2G 1
| Enviroment | Argument | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BoxIP | --boxip | IP or DNS of FritzBox |
| BoxUSER | --boxuser | Username |
| BoxPW | --boxpw | Login password for user. |
| RepeaterIP | --repeaterip | IP or DNS of FritzRepeater |
| RepeaterUSER | --repeateruser | Usually on Fritz!Repeater no User is existing. Can be left empty. |
| RepeaterPW | --repeaterpw | Password for user. |

Notes:
- Script will only work if device from where the script is called is in the same network (same WiFi, LAN or VPN connection)
- Not possible to switch ON the Fritz!Repeater after it has been switched OFF. This only works on Fritz!Box if still 2,4Ghz or 5Ghz is active or VPN connection to Fritz!Box is established
