+It might be necessary to install additional packages: $ sudo apt-get install libxslt-dev libxml2-dev +

+ +To use an Fritz!Box router in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file: + +```yaml +# Example configuration.yaml entry +device_tracker: + platform: asuswrt + host: YOUR_ROUTER_IP + username: YOUR_ADMIN_USERNAME + password: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD +``` + +Configuration variables: + +- **host** (*Optional*): The IP address of your router, eg. 192.168.1.1. It is optional since every fritzbox is also reachable by using the IP address 169.254.1.1. +- **username** (*Optional*: The username of an user with administrative privileges, usually *admin*. +- **password** (*Optional*): The password for your given admin account. + +

+It seems that it is not necessary to use it in current generation Fritz!Box routers because the necessary data can be retrieved anonymously. +

+ +See the [device tracker component page](/components/device_tracker/) for instructions how to configure the people to be tracked. +
