• Should I buy the time Capsule

  Hi all!

  I currently have an Asus router ac68u from T Mobile. It worked well this year I got it, but with one problem. USB 3 external HARD disk configuration and the service is terrible. The firmware is crippled by T-Mobile and does not have some built-in functions that it should have. I really want to be able to use it with time machine for my MacBook pro and my IMac 27 at the same time. The problem is the speed of backups and fear to use it to view files on the internet. After days of reading and research, my first thought was to replace it with a time Capsule. I would tend to think that the installer would be much less of a headache and it would be much safer way for Mac on the normal FTP or Samba which offer other routers.

  After reading so many comments, I'm wondering 3 things:

  1. the age of the technology of the time Capsule.

  2. the speed and the autonomy of the time Capsule.

  3. Wifi calling under a load.

  The peak use, there will be 14 devices share the router. But the most common are scenarios, four 802.11ac devices using Skype, youtube and Netflix at the same time with a wired broadcast LAN 4 k video peripheral. And 2 readers of streaming HD video over 802.11n.

  It strained my Asus router, but it keeps her on. My service is cable 150mg and I get full 150mg less than 30 feet with a single connected device. The T Mobile router does a good job at wifi under full load calls. I guess it's because the QoS configuration they use.

  Then the time Capsule stand or perform at least as good as my AC68U using my home or should I be looking for a monster like the 3200 AC or an AC-5300 router and buy an external hard drive. I fear that the program installation and safety, but I don't want to lose money on the Time Capsule if it cannot follow.

  You can find the specifications at support.apple.com/specs/. Then select the time Capsule to find the specs on all models from the beginning. They were initially released in 2009.

  My preference would be an Airport Extreme Base Station with a connected backup USB drive. Probably just as good as the time Capsule but more reliable. Backup speed will be slightly faster than Ethernet.

  I don't have experience with the help of so many features at the same time, so I can't comment on this issue.

  The time Capsule and are all two AEBS Gigabit capable. Typical range is clearly brought 150 feet. Walls, windows, walls, ceilings and floors will reduce this range according to the material and the distances.

• Time Capsule reducing Hardwired speed

  I have a gigabit ethernet connection and became speeds as last year.

  I recently noticed things were slow.  I'm not to lift more than 90 and 90 below.  I called my service provider who contacted the society of fiber and they claimed that I have a device that is connected that can not handle the gigabit connection.  I the end 2014 27 "iMac and the latest version of time capsule (updated to 7.7.3) so I know that they're wrong.  In addition, I received rates preceding earlier.  They had me connect my modem directly on the computer and of course I got new speeds.  Running the wired connection through the router, it seems that my time capsule limits my speed.  I Googled it and can't find anything.  Help!

  It is useful to know if the Capsule acts as a router DHCP and NAT for your network, or if your "modem" will carry the router for the network and the time Capsule is configured in Bridge Mode.

  We assume that you have checked to make sure that the Ethernet cable is not in place and reducing speeds... because a bad connection will pass a Mbps 1 000 potential up to approximately 100 Mbps speeds.

  We also assume that you have turned off and restarted several times Time Capsule.

  Can you check the setting of your Time Capsule router Mode and a report on that?  To do this...

  Open the AirPort on your Mac utility (Finder > Applications > utilities > AirPort Utility )

  Click on the image of the Time Capsule

  Click Edit in the window that appears

  Click on the network at the top of the screen

  Report on the current value for the router Mode

• Time Capsule speed

  Download speed of Time Capsule is 14 Mbps only 5 feet away when the provider gives 34 Mbps.  Upload is the same as the vendor to 5.5 Mbps.  The time capsule is not working correctly?  My old Airpot Extreme worked better than this

  Who is your provider?

  This modem do you have? Brand and model please.

  We need to know how the TC is the installer... is this in bridge or main router?

  Are there mistakes like double NAT?

  My old Airpot Extreme worked better than this

  Ironically with some old customers that will always be the case.

  To be taken seriously... you need to measure a lot of things.

  1. turn off wireless on a computer and a plug in the TC LAN ethernet port and do a speed test.

  This will tell us if the issue is routing/wan or wireless.

  2. If the wireless to test one... is only WAN or also local LAN... so to copy a file to a computer on the ethernet to a wireless computer and visa versa... how fast do you have? It must be half speed connection or close to him... that shows your computer's link speed?

  3. run the diagnostics apple Wireless provides...

  What errors or changes suggests?

  Keep a detailed log of your results... so that you know which test conditions, you used for each test.

• 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?

  My mac i run El Cap v 10.11.4.

  Att Uverse 18 m 1 m

  Time capsule two years old.

  Check the speed of 1-6 m down issue when happening, 17-18 when well. done before also.

  Can you please describe your network topology?

• Connection of slow internet speed of Time capsule

  I have a time Capsule airport of 5th generation 2 TB (802.11 AC) and a modem TP - LINK TD - 8816 ADSL2 (bridged) connected to the TC. In recent weeks, a very slow internet connection has been detected (get the go-ahead in TC and airport utility)

  Of course, I started by judging my ISP but then realizes that configuration back to the modem for PPPoE over Ethernet, the connection achieved expected quotient of internet speed.

  I have reset the TC back to the default settings (to erase all of the current settings) and set it up again with the new and cool settings. Same results.

  For the record: I have experienced same speed slow results at the TC test by wireless or ethernet connections.

  Airport Time Capsule is running 7.7.3

  MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, end 2013) OS X El Capitan 10.11.3

  I came back to use the modem router Zyxel provided by my ISP with internet high speed optimal but misses my TC!

  Thanks in advance for your support.

  I'm in the same boat... There is something seriously wrong with the TC in PPPOE mode. And nothing you can do that on it. Apple has all the controls available in the outside world.

  I got around it by using a modem router or other router between modem bridged and TC.

  In the end I put the TC in static IP mode, and it worked very well with another router.

  See Re: time capsule Airport Guard disconnect

• wired devices is more capable of connecting to time capsule

  Wired devices connected to the time capsule apple are assigned is no longer an ip address and not able to connect to the internet. Always wireless devices connect very well without any problems.

  Gites assign addresses IP not work

  The capsule is connected via PPPoE modem of fibre broadband BT openreach

  Any ideas?

  Wireless devices get the private IP address of the TC... Please check.

  for example... the TC in standard configuration as a router will use 10.0.1.x for the first device is 10.0.1.2

  The values of the gateway and DNS will be 10.0.1.1 on the laptop... check and report what are the numbers.

  On the ethernet connected machine... see if you get anything... Otherwise, set an IP address static, for example 10.0.1.201 with gateway of 10.0.1.1 and the same DNS... Does it work... If this is not the case, change the Google public DNS. 8.8.8.8

  It might also help to post some screenshots of the configuration of the TC if you still have questions... tab tab and internet network more summary page.

• WiFi work stopped on Time Capsule, but manages to get internet

  Part of our time Capsule Wifi stopped working in our office.  He continues to receive internet because everything that is connected to the internet can connect properly, including our VoIP phone system.  It just seems to be the Wifi on the Time Capsule.  The network will appear as an option on our devices, but when we try to connect, it continues to request the password.  We tried to reset and unplug, but we are unable to join the wireless network.  The time Capsule is two years old, so I don't feel like it should be failed.  Any suggestions?

  WiFi may fail.

  Please do a full factory reset.

  Universal factory reset

  Turning off the TC... That is, remove the power supply cord or the power at the wall outlet, wait 10 seconds... Hold the reset button... be nice... Turn on always even now in reset... and keep holding in for another 10 seconds. You may need assistance because it is difficult to hold in reset and power on. It will show the success quickly flashing led front. Release reset... and wait a few minutes for the TC to reset and return with the factory settings. If the front LED flashes quickly you missed and simply try again. The reset is quite fragile in these... Press the key while it is just click away and not more... I've seen people bend lever or even break. I use a toothpick as a tool.

  NB. None of your files on the hard drive of the TC are removed... This simply clears the settings of the router of the TC.

  Run through the installation wizard in airport utility

  Make sure you only give a name short and simple wifi... No, Apple has recommended. < 10 characters, pure alphanumeric characters.

  for example TCwifi

  Or even give the 2 strips of different names, for example TC24ghz and TC5ghz

  Password use WPA2 Personal, pure from 8 to 20 alphanumeric characters.

  If you still have questions wireless... the TC may be broken.

  If you have applecare on a computer or an ipad or apple TV the TC is covered and get Apple to replace.

  If it is less than 2 years old and you don't have applecare you can always buy.

  Is this more or less 2 years... It is essential... If it is still 1 day less than you can be replaced.

  Buy applecare on any product that you already have still eligible or buy a Gen3 Apple TV... don't open it. Buy applecare for it... get your TC replaced under the applecare... return the apple TV for refund.

• Said airport Time Capsule LAN Ethernet cables disconnected, but they are all connected

  We have a Time Capsule airport 2nd generation connected to a Comcast Modem for Internet service. Our network is suddenly saying that the LAN Ethernet does not work because a cable is unplugged. However, I checked all the cables and connections. I disconnected all devices and then only plugged my Mac a to. A continuous Wi - Fi connection to work but not the Ethernet LAN. I tried to use another LAN cable. He also said that a cable is unplugged. We need the Ethernet LAN to access high-speed Internet and I tried everything and can not operate. The Ethernet LAN has been upward and years of work. If the Capsule or the Comcast Modem was defective, we would not have Wi - Fi access to the Internet, but we do. Material preferences network has always been implemented are configured automatically. However, the speed is now empty display instead of speed. If I change the settings to manually set up the material, I am still unable to set the speed manually, because when I try to select the up-down arrows next to the speed, nothing happens. It's as if the speed setting has been disabled. It's so frustrating. And I have no idea how to fix this.

  If you have not already completed a power cycle full of your network, now would be a good time to do this.

  Turning off all network devices in any order you want

  Wait a minute

  Turn on the modem first and leave 2-3 minutes, he managed by itself

  Switch on the device connected to the modem and leaves turn a good minute

  Keep power devices one at a time about a minute out until the entire network is back

  Check the network

• Time Capsule router problems

  Recently, my wireless network has had problems.  He became more and more slow.  My devices connect without problems and the signal is full but it takes significantly more time to do something about it.  My iMac doesn't seem to have problems but are my other devices (phone, Tablet, PS3, PS4).  Netflix is essentially very bad because it keeps buffering every 30 seconds and I have to run PS4 upgrades must run all night because they take 8 + hours to download.  I had questions about 5-6 months, which I was able to correct by closing all the way down, 20 minute wait and then turn the modem, the router, and then the computer.  I tried again twice, but he don't seem to have any effect.

  My modem is a Motorola Surfboard SB6141.

  My router is a time capsule, model A1409.

  iMac is a model 27 inch late 2009 10.10.5 running.

  The capsule is connected directly to the modem via Ethernet.  All other devices are connected to the wireless network.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you!

  Something directly connect to the modem by ethernet. And do a test to see if download and shipping limits are together and working properly.

  You must turn off the modem at each change of customer... 5 minutes is probably enough, but this can take up to 15 minutes.

  If you have good speed then when you put the back... TC test via ethernet to TB... once again, you should get almost the same download and upload speeds as the test to the direct modem.

  Now, test your wireless... you say that the iMac has no problem... so please give us the numbers... It is difficult to work from vague descriptions...

  Then, I need to know the connection speeds and all possible information. Run diagnostics on the computer wireless.

  You should also do a factory reset full of the TC and reconfigure it as follows.

  Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the drive hard in doing so.

  Universal factory reset

  The installer the TC.

  And then redo the configuration of the computer with the Mavericks - Yosemite - ElCapo. (MYELCAP)

  1. the use of very short names... NO APPLE RECOMMENDED names. Without the space and pure alphanumeric characters.

  for example TCgen5 for the base station and the name of the TCwifi wireless.

  If the problem is using wireless TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as it also seems to help stop the nonsense. But it can be tried in the second round. IE, plan on a first and second series of changes to fix this... If all goes well... I note other steps can you tour2.

  2. use all passwords also consistent with 1. but maybe a little longer. IE 8 and 20 characters of mixed cases and numbers... no alphanumeric non-caracteres.

  3. If the TC is router, you can ignore this point. It is only a problem when the TC is bridged.

  If ensure that the TC is always the same IP address... you will need to do this on the main router using a dhcp reservation... or a bit more complex setup by using the static IP address in the TC. But it's important for deriving from intellectual property in all directions when MYELCAP do not remember his name for 5 min after a reboot done for poor network management.

  4. check that your share on the computer name does not change... Make sure that it is also in line with the above... short without space and pure alphanumeric... but this change will mess up your TM backup... so be prepared to make a new, full backup. Sorry... keep this one for the second round, if you want to avoid a new backup.

  5 attach the TC disc into the computer manually.

  In Finder, go, connect to the server in the main menu,

  Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever ip of TC is that you made static. It's a default router 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with it unless you know what you're doing).

  You can use the name... SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your name of TC... local is the default domain of the TC and does not change.

  However the names are not so easy as... the IP address nor reliable. They are not at least not in Yosemite. The field can also be a problem if you are not clogged or wireless directly to the Treasury Board.

  6. ensure that IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open network, wireless and Advanced preferences / TCP/IP... and the difficulty of IPv6. link-local only. Do the same for the ethernet if you use it.

  It is a lot more jiggery pokery, you can try, but the above is a good start... If you still find not reliable... don't be surprised.

  You may need to do more work on the computer itself. for example, to reset the NVRAM/PRAM/SMC... helped some people. A clean installation of the operating system is also useful if you update installed.

• Can I use time capsule as external hard drive?

  Can I use time capsule as external hard drive so that I can access a file or a specific folder by searching for its name?

  A TC is now and for always player network... no external. So there are limits to its use.

  If you are multitasking your TC with Time Machine and then using a DMG file as a virtual drive is better than directly copy files... However sharing becomes impossible. One person at a time can open the DMG.

  See pondini. T3 http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html

  Old but still interesting to read.

  You can certainly create a folder on the TC and copy your files on it, and then perform a search. Research is slow on wireless is so the speed of transfer of large files. With the help of ethernet is certainly encouraged to desktop computers.

  Sharing folders on the TC is also now more difficult with increasing security at El Capo and OS later. You do not create on the computer records are not available. And even the ones you create can occasionally and autonomous change permissions (since the TC controls drive not the computer), you lock your own files on... I answer these questions once a week.

  Not all software on Mac supports using network drives. The most difficult is photos that can corrupt the library due to disconnections... which are the most common wireless. Be warned backups are important and not easy to do because of the slowness of the USB port on the TC and you end up really need to another location on the network for backup on.

  Generally, I advise the people not not to use the TC for direct files... That is to say, if you edit a document, make sure that it is on a local drive... When you have finished the document, you can copy it to the network drive and delete the local version. Easy for... not so easy documents for photos with major libraries.

  A TC cannot save itself and Time Machine backup impossible network drives... This means that no backup will be your files in the TC, unless you take the initiative and do it.

• Is the time capsule the best solution for me?

  Dear Apple Support,

  I'm looking for a good solution for the following:

  -economy of mey Macbook Air 13 "wireless backup

  -Storage of files from various media (videos, basically)

  -Playback of multimedia files (iphoto library and mkv videos) on my Smart TV (wifi capable, and endowed with a multimedia player)

  I think a Time Capsule and Apple TV, but before buying it, I want to be sure those will satisfy the above requirements.

  Thank you for your answer!

  Kind regards

  Tamas

  If you format a drive for mac to use as a Time Machine backup format there is a chance your smart TV will be able to read this disc.

• Sonos access playlists itunes stored on Time Capsule?

  I moved itunes to my file storage folder on my Time Capsule, but when I arrived in Manage > SONOS music library settings, I can not understand how to connect to Time Capsule. I guess I have to select "on a network device such as a network attached storage (NAS)", but I don't know what to do next.

  Help, please!

  Files stored on the Time Capsule, his internal drive or an external drive attached to its USB port, are considered as network drives. If your SONOS application can access network drives, then it should be able to locate these files on the Time Capsule.

  Since I don't have a SONOS device to check, the typical path on the drive would be: \ < name of base station >-< partition or the shared disk name >

• Setting up Time Capsule 3 to

  Advice please, I'm a little confused as to how set up my Airport Time Capsule to do what I want it to do.

  I currently have:

  -A "Superhub" recently installed offering fast home Internet access via a cable fibre optic supplier.

  -J' bought a Time Capsule from Apple before hand and want to put it up to do the following:

  -Connect two external hard disks accessible storage from my Mac Mini and MacBook (USB connection).

  -To connect a USB printer accessible to these two computers, (more than the iPad and an IPhone).

  (Meanings attached to the ATC via a USB hub)

  -Use 3 TB storage in ATC as a backup Time Machine of Mac Mini and MacBook.

  I understand that ATC must be connected on the beautiful via Ethernet to the WAN socket cable to a plug on the hub.

  I'd be grateful if someone could please explain/point me to an explanation that describes how to set up my Mac Mini ATC in order to achieve the above requirement clearly and in simple terms.

  Thank you very much

  Before you begin, you must understand that to connect a printer to the USB port on the Time Capsule, as the iPhone and iPad iOS devices will NOT be able to print to the printer?

  That being said, a third party application like Printopia pourrait be able afford this, but there are no guarantees, and our ability to help on such things is limited, at best.

  The reason is that iOS devices required an AirPrint -compatible printer that connects to a wireless network. In other words, Apple takes the 'Air' in AirPrint very seriously.  Please take a look at this support document Apple for more information on AirPrint compatible printers.

  On AirPrint - Apple Support

  Order of the day. Depending on the brand and model of your printer, your Mac may or may not be able to print on a printer connected to the USB port on the Time Capsule.  Unfortunately, Apple does not provide a list of compatible devices in this regard.

  So, while we provide some tips on 'how to' attempt to put in place, we cannot tell you if it will work or not. Not sure how well... or if it will work until you try it on your own network.

  We will try to help, but normally, you could get information on how to set up your printer by people of support for your printer, not to Apple.

  Regarding the connection of two hard disks and a printer to the USB port of Time Capsule, this will require the use of a powered USB hub which manages devices USB 4 or more.  The problem... some powered USB hubs will not accept a USB to operate simultaneously, so you wouldn't be able to print, for example, while you have been back up data on a hard drive connected to the powered hub.

  So, you will need to check with people of powered support for your hub to ensure he will allow the simultaneous for USB devices use.

  If you want to move forward, we can help get the set up time Capsule and work with your Superhub, but our ability to help printers and hard drives may be limited.
