  Cox on said guy here, everything went well at their end.  I think that something is wrong with my configuration of the airport because I put up on an iMac obsolete.  If this is the case, I would like to start everything from scratch, unless I don't have to (?)  My new iMac is here.

  Thanks in advance,

  It is a problem with the TC model AC. We do not know the cause, but he just has problems with a number of different cable modems. (others are also affected, but cable seems the problem of principle).

  What is happening is the WAN constantly talk to the modem port.

  There is nothing you can do... neither is defective... they are simply not happy punks when together.

  The solution is to replace one or the other...

  Around here people seem to think to replace the modem a better idea... the zoom model seems to be working... but check with Cox is in their list of supported modems.

  Zoom modem.

• After several years of functioning, my Time Capsule shows a yellow flashing light instead of solid green light.  He always seems to be working, but watch the blinking light.  An update is necessary?

  Time Capsule.   After six years of good operation, my Time Capsule shows a yellow light flashing instead of green light solid.  It seems to work fine, and I tried l ' switch off and restart, nothing helps.  An update is necessary?

  The Capsule of time... and other Apple routers... flashing orange when they have a message for you. To see what it is...

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

  Click on the image of the Time Capsuleand a small window will appear

  If you see an Update button, then new firmware is available for the Capsule of time if you want to install this package. To do this, click on the Update button

  Otherwise, find the Status parameter and then click on the little orange dot it for more information on why the status light flashes, with a suggestion to fix whatever may be the cause

• How to solve my Time Capsule that does not show a green light?

  Installed my Time Capsule in a new home. My service is xfinity that has WiFi built into the modem. Time Capsule also has active WiFi. The two WiFi options work perfectly. However, my Time Capsule shows a light yellow rather than green light, so I know that something is wrong with the system. I disconnected Time Capsule and restarted - does not solve the problem. What is the Protocol for troubleshooting to solve the problem?

  You have to open the summary in airport utility page... It is enough to click the icon of the TC and read the problem in the list.

  for example

  

  Tell us what each question is and we can help you to solve this... but if you click on each of them will be offered a cure... or you can ignore the error.

• Time Capsule A1355 no light, no sound? worked this morning now after connecting it, first go-ahead for colid quickly followed by the longest fixed Orange, which turns off and then nothing? He's dead now?

  Time Capsule A1355 no light, no sound? worked this morning now after connecting it, first green light solid, quickly followed by amber is more solid, which turns off and then nothing? I'm not in the airport or if directly connected to the Macbook air utility. It is running the latest firmware, updated 7 days ago and everything was fine until now. Tried both a soft and a hard reset factory but still nothing, but the same brief glow only after restarting each time before going dark again? Any ideas if it can be fixed or if it's as I read elsewhere dead now?

  Thank you

  Any ideas if it can be fixed or if it's as I read elsewhere dead now?

  He died... the fact that the main witness turns off is unusual in this model.

  It is common to the next... A1409 (gen4)

  What happens in the Gen3 is normally a few deaths on the Board... or a bunch of capacitors is low...

  See s/apple-time-capsule-repair/new-issue-with-a1355-gen-3-tc https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem

  If yours is a very fine introduces Gen3 just before Gen 4, it is possible that the same fix on the Gen 4 could work.

  s/Apple-time-capsule-repair/GEN4-a1409-issues https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem

  I found early Gen4 may fail as Gen3 but must admit that I am yet to see the Gen3 with welding problems.

  I doubt repair is worth it. The Gen3 is now about 6 years... give or take... This is way beyond the standard lifetime of a TC.

  If you want to play, I'm happy to help you... but I would not spend money on it.

• Amber light flashing on time capsule

  I just installed and activated a new Xfinity gateway modem.  It is hooked to my Time Capsule airport.  Time successfully Capsule gives me Internet connection, with the cord, Ethernet and Wireless.  It also allows Time Machine on my MBP running towards a job.

  However, my Time Capsule continues to Flash his clear amber, instead of going to the green. He had the green light before the transition to a new modem.

  I tried the power of disconnection and reconnection both the modem and the time Capsule.  My Airport utility confirms it's something wrong, but I know not what, especially given the fact that it seems to work very well.

  Need some new avenues to explore.

  Thank you

  AirPort utility will tell you exactly what he thinks is wrong and suggest a 'solution '.

  Here, I assume that you use a recent operating system like El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks, Cougar or Lion on your Mac.

  Open AirPort Utility

  Click on the image of the time Capsule

  In the window that appears, look for the status setting

  Click on the little orange dot there for more information and a suggested fix.

  You can have a "Double NAT" error message there. The solution is to change to a setting time Capsule of 'Off (Mode bridged)' to work with your new 'modem'... which is actually a modem and a router in one package... also called gateway.

  Click on the network at the top of the screen

  Change the setting for the router Mode to read 'Off (Mode bridged) '.

  Click Update at the bottom right of the window to save the changes and allow a minute for the time Capsule again a beautiful bright green light.

  If you're still using OS X (10.6.8), post back to similar but different instructions.

• Our time capsule will blink a light amber and utilities said that it is overheating. What is the problem?

  We had a problem with our (less than 2 years) time capsule - the light yellow flashing, the fan runs often and looking in "utility" on my mac, it says that it is overheating. What is the cause of this?

  The Time Capsule fan runs constantly, so you shouldn't be aware of the fan running on the time Capsule 'often'.

  If you receive a message that the Time Capsule is overheating, there is probably a problem with the internal power supply on the Time Capsule.

  If you have an Apple Store near you, it would be wise to take the time Capsule to let the experts check the issue and discuss your options.

• Apple TV / Hue lights have no internet connection (but the phones and computers do) - only disconnect Time Capsule fixed guess?

  Hello

  My Apple TV will sporadically lose access to my iTunes library (despite showing the connection and a signal strong) and Netflix will not play.  My tint lights are not recognized when this happens.  When I restart the AppleTV, then it shows that they are not connected to the internet.  However, my computer and the phone still have functioning wifi in these proceedings.

  The only thing that seems to restore connectivity is when I unplug my Time Capsule (version 7.7.7) and then plug it back in.  Can anyone offer solutions and the potential causes?

  Thanks in advance for your time and help, it is greatly appreciated.

  I don't have a simple answer to why not a quick fix to fix things.

  There are plenty of things you can try. None are guaranteed to fix things... but he is able to increase your blood pressure and make that upset you.

  Then. I need more information.

  What ISP modem or router do you use? Brand and model please.

  Who is the provider?

  How did the TC connected to it? What mode it's in, bridge or router?

  Is the wireless on the ISP router turned on?

  You have an excessive number of routers wireless around you?

  Use diagnostics wireless on a computer to check.

  You never reset the TC at the plant after the update of the firmware?

  If this isn't the case, please do so now. Redo the installation in accordance with the following instructions.

  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.

  The installer the TC.

  And then redo the configuration of the computer with Yosemite.

  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. (try to keep names < 10 characters)

  If the problem is using wireless TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels like this helps.

  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... the IPs derived in all directions when Yosemite do not remember his name for 5 min after a reboot done for poor network management.

  I highly recommend this method on bridge of situation where you have the ISP router.

  4. Please tell us if your ISP is now using IPv6 as who introduced a new set of questions.

• Time capsule yellow light keeps blinking

  I think the time capsule works - internet is, return ups register - yet the light yellow continues to Flash every day. Should I do something to change that?

  The yellow light flashes when the time Capsule has a message for you. To find out what it might be...

  Open AirPort Utility... (Finder > Applications > utilities > AirPort Utility)

  Click on the image of the time Capsule

  A small window will appear with more information

  If you see a button update, an update of the firmware is available for the time Capsule. Click on it to install the update

• the power light comes on is when I power up my Airport Extreme, Time Capsule.

  the power light lights not is more when I place my Airport Extreme, Time Capsule of power, but I hear whirring noises.  I tried to reset the unit but get the same answer

  Sorry, but from your description, it is possible that the power supply to your Time Capsule is defective.

  What exact model of the time Capsule did you? If it is new, you can get it replaced by Apple, especially if you bought it with another Apple product.

• Time Capsule turn off when you try to access

  1. I have a TC (A1409) with a WD Caviar 2 TB (replacing the HARD drive)
  2. Now, it stops when you try to access the HARD drive on my mac. I mean, it's on, green light, all ok and then I try to look for something on the HDD and it turned off.
  3. It does not work this way, at the beginning he worked just perfect!

  Any ideas?

  Thank you!

  FWIW, the 4th generation of Capsules of time had problems with their power supplies, specifically because of an overheating. This may not be directly related to your question; However, you use a replacement drive that may be overloading power of the TC.

  Given that the problem only occurs when access them the disk, which will rotate upward and consume more energy, may be the reason why you have this problem.

• drive time capsule is not available

  The time capsule disk is not available.

  Finally, he worked on 08/08/2016.

  If the capsule is on a wireless network, other devices work on this network? Have you checked your settings on the screen of Airport utility? You've restarted the router?

  The time Capsule is the computer wifi range? Time Capsule shows a green light?

• our airport time capsule connects to computers and the internet, but does not record on the usefulness of the airport as being there - is it dying or is their a reset?

  Our computers connect via wifi to a capsule of time to the airport and to the internet, but can't find the time capsule, nor can its hard drive. Y at - it a reset, we can try or he dies. It's only a couple of months.

  Turn about your Airport Extreme for 15 seconds and then power back on. As soon as you see the green light, you should be able to see him for a minute or two in the Airport utility. In the affirmative, and see if you have Back to My Mac active. If so, disable it by removing all the e-mail addresses of the back section of my Mac. Then update your Airport Extreme. Work quickly.

  Many have started having this problem within the last week, probably because Apple changed something in its servers CCMM. A real difficulty would come from Apple, but it should work if you currently have active CCMM.

• Just upgrade El Capitan 10.11.6 now airport Time Capsule guard disconnection

  I can unplug, count to ten, reconnect and it connects sometimes, more often "connection failed."  When it connects it only got maybe an hour, then disappears.

  I DO NOT HAVE BACK TO MY MAC this problem goes beyond.

  Powering down of the Airport Extreme/Time Capsule for about 15 seconds and then power back on. As soon as you see the green light, you should be able to see him for a minute or two in the Airport utility. In the affirmative, and see if you have Back to My Mac active. If so, disable it by removing all the e-mail addresses of the back section of my Mac. Then update your Airport Extreme. Work quickly.

• Utilities airport shows a triangle Orange on Time Capsule, Wifi working

  Recently, my Time capsule is showing an orange triangle in AP-utility. By clicking on it, it shows the message: AP Time capsule found, with the possibility to forget.

  Time capsule shows a steady green light. Wifi is good job and my two other airports Express are being lit in the utility.

  I've read other discussions with similar problems. So, I did the following things:

  (1) soft reset of time capsule,

  (2) Changed link local IPv6 settings

  (3) disabled firewall

  (4) settings saved and restarted.

  It did not help for long after a few minutes the triangle orange has shown once again.

  In Time Machine, time capsule HD is not recognized or the other.

  But the wifi works perfectly.

  Please notify.

  I think that the problem is resolved.

  In this link, I found a solutionTime capsule will appear but the WIFI connection works

  He is working on 2 hours >.
