Airport Extreme and Time Capsule of airport work together?

I have time capsule and airport extreme. I need to decide if I should sell Airport extreme or is there a way for the two to work together to expand the wifi. Airport extreme can be connected to time capsule and extend the range?

AirPort Extreme can extend the time Capsule network in one of two ways:

(1) for the best performance, the AirPort Extreme is located in the heart of the area where most of the wireless coverage is needed, and it would connect to the time Capsule using wired Ethernet wired, permanent.

(2) AirPort Extreme can connect to the Time Capsule wireless network and to extend the network in this way, if you're ready locate AirPort Extreme to halfway between the Capsule and the area that needs more coverage wireless... And... accept a drop in performance of half of the potential maximum speed on the network.

  • is there a way (or an app?) to set up a local proxy server on the airport extreme or time capsule?

    Hello

    If you have the answer! I'll be so happy!

    is there a way (or an app?) to set up a local proxy server on the airport extreme or time capsule?

    Thanks for your time!

    BR,

    Stéphane

    All routers, including the AirPort base station, run as a transparent proxies for the local network behind them. However, if you are talking about the possibility of proxy requests between the LAN and Internet, then no, the airport base stations do not have a native function to support doing so.

    The two common methods to accomplish this are: 1) use a proxy on your local network, or 2) use a DNS, like OpenDNS service, which offers proxy services.

  • no more WiFi which extends from the airport express and Time capsule

    I have no more WiFi which extends from the express airport and Time capsule.

    and once it worked...

    airportconfiguration-app also works, but the graphic display allows to have a straight white line. now, it's one interrupted...

    Your unbroken lines in airport show connections ethernet utility... broken lines show the wireless connections.

    So it depends on the extend method you used.

    I think at this moment, things are configured wrongly... for some strange reason things happens and elements on a stand-alone basis, return to a default mode.

    The best way to manage it is full factory reset on everything... and repeat the installation.

    I have no more WiFi which extends from the express airport and Time capsule.

    It seems to me that you extend a NON-APPLE router... in this case, your Apple routers must connect by ethernet and create a wireless network. Routers Apple cannot extend the NON-APPLE router wired.

    The express could extend the TC or visa versa... by wireless...

    Then I suggest say us what is the main router in the network?

    You have connected by ethernet to the TC or Express or both?

    If so please reset completely the two elements and try again. Make sure they are in bridge mode... It's the network tab. Router Mode is turned off.

    And your wireless tab is configured to create a wireless network...

    Use the same name (SSID) and even the security setting and the password as the main router to network roaming (extend wireless ethernet).

    If the Express and transport CANADA are the same, both will have this configuration... If the express extends to wireless then it should NOT be connected to all the way to ethernet... (sequel to wan side at least) and it will be set to expand wireless on the wireless tab.

  • My macpro is backup in the capsule of time even when I was at work, which means that the time capsule is consumed my data plan. Can anyone suggest a way I can have it the backup only when my mac pro and time capsule is in the same local wifi

    If the Time Capsule and MacBook Pros are not on the same network, the MacBook is not backup in the time Capsule. You probably see what snapshots leaving MacBook on the local disk, until the two are reconnected. If you don't want that to happen, disable Time Machine on a different network.

    Good day.

  • SB6141 and Time Capsule works best not Modem?

    I bought an ARRIS / Motorola SB6141 modem yesterday, unfortunately without checking here first of all support and as much I having trouble to get a SB6141 and Time Capsule to cooperate.  The modem works fine with a hard line, but when I plugged in my Time Capsule for the modem I got the dreaded flashing yellow on the TC light. Three hours of reading posts here (and elsewhere) and troubleshooting later and I am still at a loss. Rather than the fight over trying to get the SB6141 to work, I would rather just buy a modem that works (at least mostly) with the TC. I am in the area of Chicago on Comcast. List of approved here modems. Please let me know if you have found a good modem to use with time Capsule. Thanks for any help!

    Additional details - I bought time Capsule 2 TB in March this year and it's all so far (ongoing enforcement, I think, 7.7.3)

    Not on Comcast, but the use of two modems in rotation.

    Zoom 5341J and Netgear CMD31T, who all have both been impeccable since they went into service almost 2 years ago.

  • Time capsule has stopped working

    Time capsule has stopped working. No orange or green light. Food is the device. Is there a fuse that might be blown? Reset it would bring to life?  Is it possible to get the backup data stored on it?

    Is there a fuse that might be blown?

    Sorry, but no.

    Reset it would bring to life?

    No, unfortunately it wouldn't be possible to reset the time Capsule if it will feed at all.

    Is it possible to get the backup data stored on it?

    Open the Capsule and remove the hard drive. Place the disk into a USB to SATA cart and which connect to your Mac.  Here, I'm assuming that the Time Capsule is not yet covered by warranty or the AppleCare, as it opens the warranty, if it is still covered.

    If you could post back with the model number of the Capsule of time... it is on the lower part of the device, probably embedded in the foam pad base, and begins with an 'A' followed by four numbers... we may have some additional information or advice for you depending on the model you have.

    I have an IMac with time machine and time capsule. If I buy a large external hard drive can back up all my Lightroom Info but also everything else to go to time machine, & that it saves on hard drive new, after he made a backup to time capsule?  This way, I would have two backups.

    Hi marinersr,

    I'm not sure the backup machine capsule/time, but according to me, that it backs up all data on your hard drive.

    Yes, you can back up the Lightroom catalog on the hard disk external.

    You can set the time of the backup under the catalog settings > backup > he would invite to the backup, when you exit Lightroom > click on select next to the location and specify the location as your new hard drive.

    If you want images of both original backup, you can configure to create a second copy of the images on your external drive during import.

    Kind regards

  • Desktop SMS and Windows Mail are not working together

    Hello

    thought I'd post here here as having a few issues with my Windows Mail but my desktop computer suffers the same problems and on a Vista forum where I posted my problem a few very useful told me who to try to solve the problems.

    One of them suddenly realized I had said my laptop is a Toshiba, and apparently the Desktop SMS and Windows Mail are not working together so that the person suggested unless I use it to uninstall apparently amongst the technically trained its known that these two programs do not like each other and explain why my office is not the problem but the laptop don't.

    After you have reset the Touch of Windows Mail (tutorial on a site http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/ vista) wood don't be put off by vistax64 as site 32 and 64 and followed great reset Windows Mail from Brink (do not restore all mail) then uninstalled Desktop SMS and touch of the drink no more mail questions that gave me problems almost every day with marking than reading/sending project messages.

    So had to click forward then remove those bits and complete the email to send and touch wood since doing these two things as soon as send an email to the box shipment or project to obtain the number of emails in parentheses, whereas before it wouldn't happen unless I closed the program and then reopened.

    Hoping that these solutions have solved my problem and wanted to share it with someone else who wants to read this thread and you recommend Vista 64 because they are all very useful there and speak in non-technical terms for those of us not technically trained.

    Thanks for this piece of information. Should be useful for some of us.

  • Two express AirPort and time capsule connectivity challenge

    Dear readers,

    I have a Time Capsule 802.11 ac connected to my ISP router and this is the router that provides DHCP addresses, etc. In our living room, I have an airport express (2nd generation) connected via radio and it works very well also. Now I got as a second AE (2nd generation) and want to put it on the floor of the attic to get a stronger signal via Ethernet to my TC. When I connect to a LAN of the TC port to the EI LAN port, the AE salon disconnects. When I add the Ethernet of AE cable in the WAN port both t he AE to the attic and TC disconnected. Currently, it is also connected via radio and it works, but will of course loose flow because it must still go through the different floors through the air compared to a stronger signal via Ethernet.

    Question I have, can I connect an AE with an Ethernet cable (and how to set up the AE or TC as a result) and an adverse event via wireless (IE editing exsisting which works, but let me know if you have to configure changes too)?

    Your help is very appreciated.

    Can question I have, I connect an adverse event with an Ethernet cable (and how to set up the AE or TC as a result)

    Yes, but you will need to restart and reset back to default settings AE. Then connect the Ethernet cable between a LAN <>- on the TC port to the "O" of EI before WAN port you are trying to configure EI.

    The problem that you are experiencing now is probably caused by connecting an Ethernet cable to an adverse event that has already been configured to "extend a wireless network. When EI is configured this way, is expected to Wireless ... not Ethernet. Ethernet is applied, it creates a feedback loop huge on the network which can cause all sorts of issues.

    Wizard Installation from Apple because most of the work for you. Just click the WiFi icon at the top of the screen of the Mac and then click on AirPort Express under the title of the new AirPort base station.

    When you click on AirPort Express, which will start the configuration "Wizard". It will take a few seconds to analyze the network, and then present a screen that looks like this:

    Type a device name you want to call the AE, and then click Next.  Monitor the screen following very closely... See the illustration below to confirm that the AE is set up "extend using Ethernet.  Who will confirm that the wizard picked the Ethernet between the TC and AE and apply the correct settings to EI.

    When you see the message Setup is complete, click done and you're done.

    If the 'other' AE is already set up to extend, then no further changes will be necessary on this device.

  • Airport Extreme and Time Machine

    Two questions:

    I have a 2nd generation (I think) Time machine. Network performance is slow throughout the House. MacBook Air, iPad, iPhone, etc. In addition, we have internet high speed ugly (country life). The new Airport Extreme upgrade will speed up my network? Also if I buy AE without Time Machine can I use always current Time Machine for backups and not as a router? Running Mac Mini end of 2014.

    If the seed is limited by your internet provider then a new router will not help.

    Try to connect to a Mac via a cable (Ethernet). That will help determine if update will help your wifi router with internet high speed.

    An Airport Extreme includes NO storage. Apple's time Capsule incorporates an Airport Extreme and a hard drive for storage in a single package/case.

    Even if you bought a time Capsule you sill use your existing storage unit for your Time Machine backup

  • Is it possible to use express Airport and Time Capsule both as two Wifi-repeaters at the same time?

    Hello

    I have a time Capsule from the airport. I use it for my back ups and he repeats my wifi in the House (bottom).

    Now I need a Repeater wifi upstairs. I think to buy Airport Express. I will connect the Airport express with a Lan connection on the floor. And then I would also have wifi on the floor.

    But is it possible to use the time Capsule Airport express airport and at the same time: two repeaters-wifi?

    1. I have a Fritz! Box router / wifi (we called wifi Fritz! box)

    2. I have a time Capsule airport / wifi Repeater (we called the turtle wifi)

    3 and now I want Airport express on the floor for the wifi upstairs (another name for this wifi?)

    Is this possible?

    Before I had used TP-link (in socket), but it works for a few months.

    Thank you for your help and advice.

    2. I have a time Capsule airport / wifi Repeater (we called the turtle wifi)

    I think that your terminology wrong... the TC cannot work as a Repeater in the Frtiz.

    I think that you have done is connect via ethernet and run it as wireless... or WAP Access Point. It is perfectly great way to do it.

    3 and now I want Airport express on the floor for the wifi upstairs (another name for this wifi?)

    This is connected by ethernet, then it will work fine... you can call it Expresswifi

    You are certainly going to clutter the wireless channels, you could so be interesting rather than auto setting fastenings.

    2.4 ghz has been set to 1, TC 6 and 11 Express then Frtiz.

    5 GHz is less of a problem... auto should be fine, because the beach is mediocre.

  • Extend my cable modem network via Airport express and Time Capsule

    I am trying to expand my home network through my Airport express AND a Time Capsule. Installation of extension through the airport was easy and successful.

    I then tried to expand further with Time Capsule

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to do what you want... given that the function of "extend a wireless network" Apple will not accept to be extended once the network is not two.

    The other question that you probably, it is that unless your 'main' router is also another router from Apple, the Express is not really 'extension' of the network at all, despite what you think.  More likely, the Express is "membership" in the network. It can be used to connect a USB printer remote in this environment or for use with AirPlay... but the Express doesn't "spread" or "repeat" when he joined the network.

    If you want to check if the Express is really extend the network, and you have a Mac laptop... after back and provide you with a few steps.

    But even if the Express could be the extension of the network... Time Capsule will have to connect to the network using a permanent, wired cables Ethernet... ideally to your main router, but it might work OK if you connect to the Express.

  • Extreme slowness of local area network and Time Capsule wireless speeds

    I have a time Capsule Airport Extreme 3 G with firmware version 7.7.3 I use for lan connections / wireless and backup of all apple devices that do not use the cloud. For the last month or so sometimes I ridiculously slow speed issues that cannot be remedied with any one of them that I have tried. Speed control on my i mac or wireless on any device in any location see accelerates it half of what I pay for. If I shoot a speed control to the back of the modem, everything is ok. If I shoot a speed check in a port on my machine Net Pro FVS318G safe with Airport extreme disconnected speeds are fine. But when the capsule is used the speed is slow. This happens not all the time. In fact this am that everything was fine, she just started about an hour or two there once again. And it normally clears up in a few hours on its own. It is like someone is inside my computer slows down I can't even do a backup on my i-phone when this happens.   I bought the thinking net machine that triple nat could help I'm not using the vpn option. I'm lost and open for suggestions?

  • boosters of WiFi and time Capsules

    I want to increase my wifi signal, and I'm getting conflicting advice. I use my Time Capsule as my source wifi. I see a numebr of extenders of wifi on Amazon, but it works best with TC? Are these devices plug - and p; Ay?

    Thank you.

    What works the 'better' with the TC is either another TC AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express base station as all of them use the same propriety technology to extend a wireless network.
