Can I reset the time especially for the backup capsule?

I have a wi - fi network with my new Xfinity configuration. I have iMac wireless, Air, the two El Capitan (10.11.3) iPad and 2 iPhones (all iOS 9.3.1) and an airport Time Capsule (version 7.6.4). It works in bridge mode and the router Xfinity has 2,4 and 5 capacity (Time Capsule is set to automatic for both). I set up Time Capsule as a wireless base station when I arrived a few years ago, but now, wonder if I should disable and simply use it as backup, time machine fearing that it might create a redundancy that slows the rate of data exchange.

I think you could ask for if you disable wireless on the Time Capsule and try to use it as a wired device backup only.

Apple will officially support Time Machine backups when you use the wireless on the Time Capsule to back up your Mac (s).

So, it is possible that you could turn off the radio on the Time Capsule and backup using the wireless, Xfinity, Apple will not help you if you have a problem with this method.

It's your call. You're not sure how well... or if... you will be able to back up your Mac (s) using the Xfinity wireless until you actually try. Assuming that it might work OK, you must then decide if you want to spend on any help Apple if you encounter any problems with your backups.
