The '''Freebox''' is an [[ADSL]] [[modem]] that the French [[internet service provider]] named [[Free (French ISP)|Free]] provides to its [[ADSL]] subscribers.

Its main use is as a high-end wireless modem (802.11g MIMO), but it also allows Free to offer added services using ADSL as support, like HD television (1080p), video  recording with timeshifting capabilities, digital radio and free telephony (via one or two RJ11 according to models).

The Freebox OS uses [[BusyBox]].

Now with the v3 (and next), it also provides a Videolan client in order to get the movies (in any format read by [[VLC]]) stored on the computer and watchable on TV through a playlist selector. This functionality is named Freeplayer.

In the same way, the Freebox (v3 and upper) is able to broadcast TV channels to one or more computer.
