Update for popular camping router FritzBox 6850 5G v2: new features and fixes
Original source: DIGITAL FERNSEHEN

Fritz has released a lab update (version 8.24-134518) for the FritzBox 6850 5G v2 router, designed for use in motorhomes and campers. The update was released in July 2026, at the height of the travel season. The new firmware fixes three known issues: installation error due to incorrect file selection (requires unpacking the ZIP and selecting the .image file), WLAN instability when using MLO clients (fixed by enabling compatibility option in settings), and temporary white screen display in the interface (fixed by refreshing the page with Ctrl+F5). The router features a Qualcomm Snapdragon X62/X65 modem and supports stable 12V operation, making it popular among travelers.

At the 137th Travemünder Woche in Lübeck-Travemünde, the 'Rollin Free' campervan for wheelchair users was unveiled.
