FritzBox user login #146

I set up the the plugin for my homebridge on my raspberry. I was nearly ready but I got a issue that the login credentials are wrong. I tried very long to get this done. In the end I tried to change the fritzbox interface login from password to username and password. I hope you understand me. So, my question, is it possible to set the fritz.box interface to the "just password interface" and log the raspberry in with an username?

Afaik you need username and passeord.

just create a extra user for this plugin in your fritzbox: Login to FritzBox: System -> FRITZ!Box-User -> add user Create a user and a password for this use.

Your config.json need this combination like this:

            "platform": "FRITZ!Box",
            "name": "SSID of the FRITZ!Box",
            "username": "new_user",
            "password": "new_password",
            "url": "http://ipaddressoffritzbox",

You don't need to change the interface login password or anything else.
