TC using wireless as a backup only

I am using a Comcast gateway modem/router in my office working with a PC and you want to use my TC in another room with my iMac via wifi. I plugged the TC to the router and it works fine.  If I plug the iMac in the other room, he flashes yellow.  I have the network turned off the coast and it is in bridge mode.  Press the upper left set on wifi and I get the error message that the device is not recognized and it is not like a connected device.  If I set it to Ethernet with the wireless off, I get an error message cannot find the DNS server.  Can anyone help?  Thank you.

If you see the Guide installation provided with your Time Capsule, they will confirm the needs of Time Capsule for you to connect your modem/router to Comcast with a permanent, wired Ethernet cable. It's because the Capsule is a network ... drive which needs to connect to your router .

Once you have set up time Capsule, you can back up your Mac via Network Time Capsule wireless.

If you try to connect to the time Capsule to your Mac... which would make a local drive... a task that the Time Capsule was not designed to perform.

  • Use the TC for backups only, while the computer is connected to a different network

    I want to be able to make backups without having to connect to its network via wi - fi, because I'm connected to a different wireless network to access the internet.

    I thought that I need to connect the TC to my computer with an Ethernet cable.

  • need help to set up time capsule as a backup only

    I used Time Capsule as a router wifi and backup for several years.  The wifi didn't give me the whole House coverage so I bought the mesh network eero newly released product. I still want to use my Time Capsule for backup and, as he already has about two years of backup on this subject, I don't want to lose these backups. I created a new network for eero routers but gave the network of the same name and password as the old TC network so that all my devices would automatically connect to the new network.  That has worked well.  Is it possible to connect the time Capsule to the my wireless network so that my MacBook and MBP my wife will continue to save on the network they were?  The eero router has two Ethernet ports on the back and the two are to be used (one for the modem, the other for Sonos) so I do not have an available port to use.  Can I buy a switch if I have to, but if there is a wireless solution I would rather.

    I also have a desktop Mac that has saved on the TC and it's my main computer.

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Is it possible to connect the time Capsule to the my wireless network so that my MacBook and MBP my wife will continue to save on the network they were?

    No, you cannot join the TC now network a wireless router not apple. Apple has removed this feature because he was too... too slow, unreliable and missing too many apples.

    The eero router has two Ethernet ports on the back and the two are to be used (one for the modem, the other for Sonos) so I do not have an available port to use.  Can I buy a switch if I have to, but if there is a wireless solution I would rather.

    You can run the TC between eero router and the sonos.

    Connect the wan port on TC eero and Sonos to the TC lan port. Configure the TC in Bridge mode. Disable the wireless sound. (Or you can leave the wireless on but use a different name for your eero wireless now).

    The TC will work like a switch... this side of it will work fine.

    How well the works of TC depends on the OS everything works... You can find it is actually necessary to paginate on the TC to make backups of the laptops wireless. Apple has made changes to the DNS system that broke network so that it can be impossible for computers discover the TC after a few hours after a reboot.

    Give it a try... If this does not work then you need to be more creative.

    The TC can connect through ethernet in the desktop computer. But for this, it must be configured with a different range of IP addresses for the rest of the network. Again, you can use wireless on... but the laptop will have to make backups by a different method. It gets complicated very quickly.

    Tell me what IP range using the eero router?

    I can make a few suggestions more as soon as we clear.

  • How connect wireless Speedlite 430EX III - RT for EOS 7 d Mark II using wireless radio signal?

    I just upgraded from a fighter to a 7 d and am sure he has the ability to use wireless for my Speedlite 430ES III - RT radio signal.  Unfortunately, I've exhausted myself trying to get them to connect.  If anyone has had the same issues, or have a solution to my problem or even have a link to a good video for the Speedlite & 7 D, I have?

    I watched a lot of YouTube videos and seem to have all the settings correct-channel, master/slave, A, B, Group C parameters, the unit is set for the wireless.

    Help please and thank you.

    The 7 d II can control only wireless Speedlite 430EX III - RT optically via its pop-up flash but not via radio signal.  So you can either get an another Speedlite 430EX III - RT or a dedicated controller ST - E3, mounted on the hot shoe of the camera.

  • When I try to connect with my wireless laptop will connect only to Local access. If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.

    VIsta - Local access only

    HI -.
    I recently moved.   I use the same router from my old apartment and I had no problem connection in the past.   Since I moved I have a new Time Warner modem (Cisco) and the modem works fine.

    The router also works very well I'm able to connect with my iPhone and IPad without any problem.

    But when I try to connect with my wireless laptop, it will only connect to Local access.    If I connect the laptop to the router with the ethernet cable, it works very well.

    It's a Dell Studio 15 with Vista.

    The computer is able to connect to wifi to other places without any problem, but for some reason that I can't connect home.   I tried to reset the modem and the router several times, but that did not help.   I tried the option repair & diagnose several times but it doesn't work.

    I tried to look for other solutions online and tried to disable IPv6, and while it helped some and I was able to connect wireless, the computer ran so slowly that it didn't seem like a good solution.

    This has been very frustrating.   Thanks in advance for any help or suggestion.

    Hello Staciusa,

    Have you tried to change the wireless channel that your router is running at? There may be interference that could prevent the internet connection:

    Take a look at step 6 in this article that give more details about it:

    If you need assistance to change the settings of the specific router, you will need to contact your router manufacturer or your internet service provider.

  • 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.

    Hello

    -check if your laptop has a WIRELESS card with onboard (Manager of devices under network adapters or WiFi label on the low side)
    -If yes turn it on using wireless switch antenna ON / OFF in the front near the headphone jack
    -When the control led is CHECK if the WIFI is enabled by using the FN + F8 key combination
    -Depending on your local settings WLAN connectivity must be configured properly (TCP/IP)
    -You can use the Windows settings for WLAN configuration (you can find it under the "networks" tab a wireless WLAN properties)
    -refresh the available networks and if your LAN is displayed there you can add it as a favorite and configure (encryption)

    All that s!

    I have a HP OfficeJet Pro L7590 (all-in-one) want to use wireless.

    I have a laptop Apple Macbook (mine) and a laptop IBM thinkpad (from my company that I keep with me).

    How can I use the wireless all-in-one with two laptops - what equipment do I need and where can I find it?

    Thank you

    You must have the wireless router if you want both a wireless connection. The printer has no built-in wireless so you need to connect to the router wireless using a LAN cable. And before you can do this, you must set up your own network first. You must call your router or your ISP factory to set up your own network of wireless configuration.

    For more information on the configuration of the printer on the network, you can find this useful link.

    Hi guys, first of all excuse my English because it is not my natural language. My problem is this: I think that my office is stressful on me. It's freezing and sometimes it does not start. I'm trying to back up my files, but I'm not. Is it possible to copy my files to a USB stick and use it as a backup? If so should what files I back up? Is it possible to do a reinstall? I have a Dell OptiPlex 745 with windows vista ultimate. Any help would be welcome.

    Kind regards

    Go to the file/s you want to put (Documents, music, Photos, etc. in Windows Explorer) > right click on it/them > hover over send it to the mouse cursor > select external hard drive or Memory Stick that you plugged them to save.
