FRITZ!Box 6690 Pro at IFA? Rumour vs. AVM’s current models
Original (translated): “Next month in Berlin the IFA trade fair specialised in consumer electronics and household appliances will take place. Numerous new releases are expected. The vendor formerly known as AVM and now using the FRITZ! brand is said to present the new FRITZ!Box 6690 Pro for the first time.”
Quick summary: Multiple reports claim a FRITZ!Box 6690 Pro will appear at IFA. However, current official AVM product listings show the FRITZ!Box 6690 Cable (Wi‑Fi 6). We found no official announcement or confirmation of a Wi‑Fi 7 “Pro” variant.
What we checked
- AVM official FRITZ!Box 6690 product page: FRITZ!Box 6690 Cable (AVM)
- Retail listings in Europe (examples): Galaxus, Digitec
- News coverage: tech sites referencing the 6690 Cable release
Current FRITZ!Box 6690 Cable — key specs
- Wi‑Fi 6 (802.11ax), up to ~4800 Mbps on 5 GHz
- DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem support
- 1x 2.5 Gbps + 3x 1 Gbps Ethernet

Conclusion
At present there is no confirmed FRITZ!Box 6690 Pro with Wi‑Fi 7. If you saw previews claiming a Pro/Wi‑Fi 7 reveal at IFA, treat them as unconfirmed until AVM publishes an official announcement. We’ll update when AVM posts official details.
