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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • Remove/delete a network WiFi of Time Capsule?

    How delete/remove a WiFi network that is no longer, I need my Time Capsule?

    There are actually two places that can remember a former name of Wi - Fi network: 1) the Time Capsule (TC) and 2) your MacBook Air.

    To remove / change the name of the network on the TC you use AirPort Utility, as follows:

    • Run the AirPort Utility.
    • Select the TC and then, select change.
    • Select the wireless tab.
    • Change the unwanted network name in the field "name of the wireless network.
    • Select to update and let the TC restart.

    To remove the network name on your MacBook Air:

    • System Preferences > network
    • Select Wi - Fi > advanced
    • In the preferred networks window, select the unwanted network and then click on the button "-".
    • Click OK when you are finished.
  • C4580 - error when setting up connect through WiFi w / Time Capsule

    I used my C4580 to print and scann with wireless in the past, a Netgear WiFi router with a DLink WiFi router.  I recently started using a Time Capsule from Apple as my WiFi router.  I have two active groups, so I have a 2.4 GHz signal and a 5 GHz signal available for my wireless products to connect to.  All the other products I use (a MacBook Pro running OS X Lion, an iMac running OS X Lion, a CPU HP running Windows XP, a CPU Dell running Windows 7, a Fujitsu laptop running Windows Vista, Apple TV, an iPhone, and an HTC Evo a TiVo set - top box) are able to connect to one or the other of these signals of network without problem.

    Here's what's happening with the C4580:

    1. I plug my C4580 on my MacBook Pro via USB.

    2. I open the HP installation wizard.

    3. in the first part of the "Setup" section, I select my "Photosmart C4500 series", which shows as connected via 'USB '.

    4. in the second part of the topic "Setup", I check the box "configure yoru device to a wireless network.

    5. in the third part of the "Setup" section, my 5 GHz network is not displayed.  My 2.4 GHz network appears, by dint of complete signal, showing the encryption 'WPA_PSK' and 'Infrastructure' mode  I select this option.

    6. After about two minutes, during which the Setup Wizard probably tries to connect the C4580 to the WiFi network, I get the following error message: "* device not connected * to configure the network settings for the selected device, please temporarily connect it via the USB port.  The device can be disconnected from the USB once the network settings are transferred. »

    Note: Throughout this process, my C4500 WAS connected to my MacBook Pro via USB.

    Question: What other steps should I take to solve this problem?

    Thanks for your time.

    First time that I posted on a forum techy, bt I get a lot of help from them, then it's time to spread the love.

    In any case, I was struck by our similar problems were, we have exactly the same set up and the same current. I've been hitting my head against a brick wall for a whole afternoon. Your temporary solution lead me to a very simple implementation and a more permanent solution.

    Your normal home network have an apostrophe or special characters, such as YourName Wi - Fi network?

    I had two networks put in place (already had a network of comments) called W - Fi Latitude and comments Latitude travel network travel network.

    On your advice I tried to use my Gust netowrk. Oddly, when he showed up on the list, it lacked the apostrophe (the other network was not missing the apostrophe). When I tried to click on it, it said that there was not. I tried to type the name in its entirety in the box 'Other networks' and I was able to connect, but the software insisted that even if the printer is now connected, the MacBook was not (even though it was clearly).

    The anomaly has led me to believe that the HP Softare along with apostrophes, I went to the airport and renamed the two networks with apostrophes. I gave the private network a go, and voila, everything went well.

    It is a lesson in how to make a long story short. Basically, to remove the apostrophes in your network name in the airport and then try again.

  • First external USB disk backup from Time Machine and Time Capsule

    I have a new USB drive from 4 TB to use for backups Time Machine plugged on my almost full Time Capsule.  The Capsule is connected to my network using Ethernet, so it can be used to back up my MacBook Pro and iMac (via ethernet) (wireless).

    I would like to initial backups by directly plugging the USB directly on my iMac and my MacBook Pro.  I currently have the USB plugged into the Capsule of time connected to the ethernet. The initial backup for my iMac took 2 hours to make the 35GBs of 1.6TBs to back up so far.  So potentially 2 + days of initial backup...?

    There must be a quicker way.

    Box: to recover from my iMac support precedent (after a crash), which stood on a 3 TB USB2 drive plugged to the Capsule, it was estimated to take 36 hours.  I fly over the drive and plugged into the USB port on my iMac and the recovery only took about 8-10 hours, so it does not work for recovery.

    I tried to make the backup of the iMac by plugging the USB drive of 4 TB directly on the iMac. I then moved the dUSB Time Capsule drive, but he seemed to start when plugged into the TimeCapsule. If possible, I must have done something wrong in the order.

    It is extremely difficult to backup directly to the USB port and then move it to the TC because TM backup differently at local and network drives.

    People have figured out ways around it... but you think that it cannot simply... After saving 1.6 TB of data.

    Here see Q18.

  • UPNP Audio and Time Capsule

    I have 4 Gen Time Capsule.

    I have an Arcam AirDAC connected via Ethernet. The AirDAC is an AirPlay / UPNP enabled digital-to-analog converter for audio processing and power of an amplifier.

    Arcam say the AirDAC can process all the files an airplay / UPNP device.

    So I enabled UPNP (Port Mapping or as Apple calls it) on the TC. What I've done.

    But the Arcam app sees nothing. He sees my iPhone music library, but it is a standard feature of iOS. But no matter what I cannot see the audio files in the section shared my TC by using the application.

    I don't know if the iPhone gets the TC files then sends them to the DAC - or if its supposed to just 'direct' the AirDAC to find and process the desired files itself on the TC.

    Basically I want to just the DAC to treat my library of files FLAC, ALAC, stored on the TC, because they are too large to store on my iPhone / MacBook.

    Any ideas?

    So I enabled UPNP (Port Mapping or as Apple calls it) on the TC. What I've done.

    Just to be clear... Apple does not support UPNP... and port mapping is not at all the same thing... When you map a port it is corrected... UPNP is an automatic system which opens the ports when necessary, but can negotiate ports that has a fixed layout design can never do.

    All of this is irrelevant... UPnP and port forwarding or mapping is entirely to do with remote access to internet files... and the plague of NAT. that is how the router connects us to the internet... It does not in a LAN where all the ports are open by default. You can remove your port cards... they are useless in this configuration.

    But no matter what I cannot see the audio files in the section shared my TC by using the application.

    There is no server media in the TC... This is nothing more than a dumb box... it stores files... all the intelligence must be managed by the software on your computer or iOS device. Or the media player... what I interpret it DAC is not the case.

    Basically I want to just the DAC to treat my library of files FLAC, ALAC, stored on the TC, because they are too large to store on my iPhone / MacBook.

    Your player is very probably a streaming device... he can't see the files. Nor can the TC broadcast their... He has no brain.

    You must connect to a computer or a more intelligent than a TC device.

    Now I don't know the product... So just a quick glance that it is said.

    In addition, you can use AirPlay with iDevices running iOS7, to send music to your stereo services such as TuneIn Radio and vTuner Internet radio, as well as streaming music services such as Spotifyand Qobuz.

    The airDAC is one of the simplest ways to enjoy your music from your device UPnP, iPhone® / iPad® or computer running iTunes® and brings quality Arcam sound to a whole new generation of music lovers.

    I think it's important that you understand... a TC is NOT a upnp device... the port mapping does not make a... and this mixup of terminology does not help.
