I need to know what kind of 'DISCOVERY' it is.

Do you mean to find how to use it for Time Machine? But internet works well?

Do you find that in Airport utility?

Or do you mean no wireless connection at all? IE cannot find signal wireless of TC.

The answers are quite different, so I need that before we can go any further.

Which MBA is connected before the new TC? It is still in the environment and work? for example an ISP gateway full.

  • Unable to connect to the Network Time Capsule wireless

    I just changed ISP (AT & T to Time Warner) and I use my own modem cable (Arris SB6141). I connected by TC via the WAN and knitting laptop via the connection to the local network, but now only my MacBook Air (El Capitan running) connects to the wifi network of TC. Nothing else connects; AppleTV (w/Siri), iPhone 6s (9.3.1). Is there a compatibility issue that could be the cause of the problem between the modem and the TC? Or is there something I'm supposed to change with the settings? It worked fine when I was using a router 2WIRE AT & T U-Verse.

    Looks like the router Mode of the time Capsule airport is set to Off (Bridge Mode)... (which would have been correct for use with a 2Wire product)... but, it must be set to DHCP and NAT to use with a simple modem.

    Turn off the modem for at least 20 minutes... more won't hurt

    Turning off time Capsule

    Make sure the Ethernet cable from the modem connects to the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port

    After the 20 + minute modem switch off period has finished, turn on the modem and let it run for 10 minutes

    Then, turn the time Capsule and let it run for 5 minutes

    On your MacBook Air...

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

    Click on the image of the time Capsule

    Click on edit in the window that appears

    Click on the network at the top of the next window tab

    Make sure that the setting of router Mode = DHCP and NAT

    Click Update at the bottom right of the window and give the time Capsule a minute full to restart

    Recheck the network and report on your results

    Unfortunately, the SB6141 and Apple routers not always who hear well together, so keep an eye on the issues

  • Remote Access Time capsule with windows 10 pc

    I have my time Capsule connected to the router of the provider internet I easily access from inside my home network and with a Mac, I'm not able to access remotely with my Windows 10 PC and my iPad Time Capsule (I only am not able to Set up hold File Manager app).

    Any suggestion wich port to set?

    Thank you

    Aldo

    You will need a computer that uses AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) to access from a remote location Time Capsule.  Windows 10 does not have this feature, so you will not be able to use the time Capsule to access from a remote location using a PC.

    Although it is not officially supported by Apple, you can usually access the time from an iPad Capsule using the navigation application.  The navigation instructions are there, and they do not work for me when I try this:

  • Routers changed; How to reconnect time capsule

    Changed to Earthlink DSL to AT & T u-verse fiber and time capsule airport is no longer back up; AT & T set new router; I want to use only the Time Machine backup. What I have to do a hard reset of time capsule? Is there an easier way to reconnect with my iMac? I have now connected time capsule directly in my iMac, but still no recognition. Thank you.

    Whenever you change the modem or modem/router, or change service provider, the time Capsule airport must be reset to the default settings and then set it up again to work on the "new" network

    A hard reset on the Time Capsule will achieve this goal. Then, make sure that the Ethernet cable connects from one of the four <>- on the Uverse router/modem LAN ports to the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port.

    Set up the time Capsule still... you can use the same name and password if you want, or set up a new name and password if you wish.

  • Time capsule backup dedicated

    I'll put up a new Mac Pro and want to use Time Capsule as a wired dedicated backup device.  On my Mac, I have a 1 TB internal drive will be used only for the application and software work areas.  I have a 4 TB external drive, where all my user files reside.  I want to hardwire connect Time Capsule to my Mac and use it only to back up the drive internal.  I have a separate drive of 8 TB I'll use a program like ChronoSync to back up my drive of the 4 TB user.  I use one of the Ethernet ports on my Mac to connect to my home network.  I have an Ethernet port open on my Mac.  Can I use the Ethernet Mac port available and connect Time Capsule for the Mac as a dedicated backup device?

    The Capsule connects to your modem or modem router using a wired Ethernet cable connection. Connect the modem into the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port and configure time Capsule to create a wireless network.

    If you don't need wireless, it can be turned off once the time Capsule has been implemented to work with your modem or router/modem.

    Your Mac can then go back to Ethernet connection time Capsule cable from the Mac to one of the three ports LAN <>- on the back of the time Capsule.  Don't forget to turn off the radio on the Mac to make sure that the backup will take place via the Ethernet connection.

  • What is the best way to connect a time capsule from the airport to an existing dsl router?

    I have a Netgear D6300 router with built-in ADSL modem and I'm getting a time capsule from the airport. I thought to put the D6300 in Bridge mode and connect the TC via a ethernet cable but my netgear router is kept in a metal TV armoire or I asked myself if I put on the floor and used to extend my existing wireless which is a little spotty on the floor, but I didn't know if the connection on the hard drive would be too slow. However I read in another post is no longer that apple supports the extension of networks of "no apple"?

    The time Capsule will connect to the Netgear router using a wired Ethernet cable connection, permanent... no matter how you decide to configure things.

    Regarding the location, Time Capsule can be located just about anywhere that it will allow an Ethernet connection. If you want to time Capsule to "extend" the wireless Netgear, and then configure the time Capsule to create a new wireless network that uses the exact same wireless network name and password than the Netgear router. The result will be a network of 'big '.

    Should be a lot more work, but assuming that the Netgear gateway can be configured to work as only a simple modem, the Capsule can be configured as the primary network router.

  • Create wireless network with airport Time Capsule

    I replace my ISP provider rented the modem / router with a modem, I bought and I would use my gen current airport Time Capsule to set up the wifi network. I can't find the instructions on how to proceed and AirPort Extreme do not seem to apply.

    I am running OS X Capitan 10.11.3 on an early 2015 MacBook Pro.

    Thank you!

    Dale

    I can't find the instructions on how to proceed and AirPort Extreme do not seem to apply.

    Hmm.  A time Capsule is an AirPort Extreme with a built-in hard drive, so what works for one should work for the other and vice versa. You might be looking at old operating instructions?

    Since you've decided to add a new modem, Time Capsule will be reset back to the default settings and then set it up again to work with the new modem.  Apple installation "wizard" will guide you in installing the time Capsule, by appointing a wireless network, set up a password, etc, so the process is very easy to name.

    The installation provided with your Time Capsule Guide goes on how to set up the time Capsule.

    After resetting the time Capsule to factory default settings, you would connect an Ethernet cable from the modem into the "O" on the Time Capsule WAN port.

    To get the "Assistant" Setup running, just click the WiFi icon at the top of the screen of the Mac and are looking for the new AirPort base station. Just below that, click directly on the Time Capsule.  The example below shows an AirPort Extreme, but you would see on your screen time Capsule.

    When you click on the Time Capsule, the next screen that is displayed looks like this, except that you will see a picture of a Capsule of time on your screen.

    Simply click next to get the process going and follow the instructions.

  • Inlet air Time Capsule abandons the NAS server connection

    I have problems with my time capsule 2 TB air port when you view the administration of my Netgear Readynas a browser page.  The Admin page may stop working intermittently.  I got then refresh the web page to re-establish the connection.

    This happened with any browser of the computer, safari, IE, or Windows 10 Edge and any computer, Mac Book Pro, iPad, IMac, PC and makes no difference if it was wired or wireless.

    The only way I could stop the problem from happening is to replace it with an old Netgear R6300v2 router time capsule.

    The connection is completely stable with the Netgear router.

    Time Capsule firmware is version 7.7.3.

    Either way, I had to work with Netgear support for several hours remove the SIN as the problem and to locate the airport as the question time capsule.

    Hoping someone has a suggestion on how to get the time capsule works again correctly.

    Unfortunately there are no controls to help you.

    You can report the problem to apple, but I doubt they will take it seriously.

    I think that the issue has to do with the web page tools used by Netgear, which the TC does not include the protocols used.

    For now your best bet is to permanently keep your R6300 the main router... but you can plug the inside in Bridge mode TC. Then, create a wireless network and see if the client is connected by wireless (or ethernet) for the TC still has the same problems with the Netgear NAS.

    The issue will not, even if it does, the administration... pages the client behind the TC must always be able to use disk space in the NAS without problems. And you can continue to use the TC for Time Machine backups and wireless... Although these two functions you may now push the Netgear router more SIN.

  • Unable to connect to the internet via the Time Capsule 2 TB router

    Hello

    I can't connect wireless to the internet using my Time Capsule (see 7.7.3 running).

    I mainly use a macbook air (so no ethernet jack) running El Capitan 10.12.2 but the problem also occurs with our iPad and iPhone.

    The system has worked for a few hours after the initial Setup, but our ISP crashed and I was not able to make it work since their entry online. I've used a Linksys router.

    ISP is done via a wireless connection. The provider can see my antenna and an Apple device connected to it. I have a static IP address with DNS assigned.

    My airport utility shows green for the network connection and the internet but no Web page will open.

    I did reset hard and reconfigurations a few times which one where I left the modem to the router cable disconnected until I got the full configuration.

    The wireless network is using DHCP with DNS assigned to a beach.

    Router mode is DHCP and NAT.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    There are a number of situations where the TC will simply not work.

    I have a static IP address with DNS assigned.

    If you have configured the Internet of TC tab with static IP address?

    Would it not be possible to get the address IP via dhcp... have you tried?

    Wireless modem is connected by ethernet to your TC? Also, the modem is a router that is bridged?

    I really need to see the numbers... but it's not good to put the public IP address here... xxx on the first two bytes and just give me the rest... as long as the IP and gateway are the same.

    Or send it to my email address. (see my profile).

    Your linksys might work, but the CT will not... This happens because Apple does not provide sufficient flexibility to allow the wireless Internet service provider. (Or Satellite or fiber or some ADSL).

    But it can also be a problem with the network... we have problems with the WAN port with some modems.

    Does the ethernet connectivity light come on, when you connect the modem to the WAN port on the TC?

  • Unable to connect to WD Mybook Duo when it is connected to Time Capsule

    I have a new Western Digital MyBook Duo 4 (2 TB per disk) to I want to access any of the three Macs in the House.

    Every Mac use the Wifi in my Time Capsule airport station. My book Duo is plugged into the USB jack on the back that is provided for external hard drives.

    However, all Macs you will see the Duo MyBook, none can use it.

    Info: Every Mac running El Capitan.   The Time Capsule and MyBook Duo running the latest firmware.

    In the Finder, every Mac can see the airport Time Capsule, under 'Shared' in the left pane. By clicking on it, each Mac can see the time Capsule HARD internal disk and external HDD my book Duo. When I click on it, I get the same darn message each time: "the operation cannot be performed because the original for"My Book Duo"item could not be found."

    If I connect the MyBook Duo directly to the USB port on any Mac, everything works fine. But this isn't the way I want to connect.

    The most convenient airport Time Capsule is supposed to effectively (via its USB port) allows you to have an external HDD on a network, and that's how I want to use my book Duo.

    Can someone help, please?

    Hello

    Did you do the drives MyBook Duo are in the right format? It must be formatted in HFS + (also known as Mac OS extended (journaled).

    Hope this helps, good luck!

  • How can I enable port forwarding in the router of the time capsule

    Does anyone know how to enable port forwarding in router Time Capsule Airport please?

    Port Mapping on the time Capsule airport cannot be enabled unless you have the right type of modem on your network.

    Thus, we need the number of brand and model of the device you're calling your "modem" before we can move forward. Please post back this information.  We do not need a series number... only the name of the manufacturer and model number of the modem.

  • Port Forwarding airport 6.3.2 utility Airport Time Capsule model A1409

    Some friends and I have tried to reach an audience subscribed to the server, which requires specific ports to be opened to allow friends to see your created server and join your created server.  To try to reach these servers that we receive messages indicating that the server in #. ##. ##. #: 27015 does not.  This IP address that appears in the message is actually our address public router (modem), but the Apple software uses with its base stations does not the entrance to this IP address public opening of ports and allows only private IP addresses equipment connected to the WiFi set up in your home network.

    We have all tried to open this port 27015 using our Airport 6.3.2 utility software but when we check this port using network utility, it does not show this port as open, so our port logon attempt has failed.

    One of us used a WiFi network provided through Motorola SURFboard SB6121 DOCSIS® modem cable connected to our Apple's Time Capsule 2 TB model A1409 airport.  Use of the Airport utility application on an iMac, we tried to open several ports required specified by different sites for this server in the work and friends to be able to see my server.

    However, when you attempt to open ports, only WiFi IP camera is allowed, such as 10.0.1.2 and not the IP that claims server is unresponsive, which is the IP address for the public router (Motorola Modem) of #. ##. ##. ##.

    We all visited www.portforward.com for suggestions but this site is outdated regarding the latest software from Apple wireless stations.  It seems that Apple does not provide an operational means to open all ports using this time Capsule which actually work and make every effort to get to our computer via airport base station is blocked by the base station.

    The formal question is this: since Apple Wireless/WiFi network has "private" IP for each device connected to the network, how servers join we create outside the home on systems to which we have subscribed and we open the required ports so that we can see?  This server is looking at the public IP address and port (#. #. #. #: 27015) and claiming that it cannot get through this port.  How to open this port so we can use these servers as they are scheduled/planned by the merchant site that we use?

    Thank you

    Airport - Port Mapping Basics using v6.x AirPort Utility

    One of us used a WiFi network provided through Motorola SURFboard SB6121 DOCSIS® modem cable connected to our Apple's Time Capsule 2 TB model A1409 airport.

    The SB6121 is a known issue with Apple routers. Although most of the problems exist with products of next generation, AC AE and TC version, the latest firmware of the previous Gen, 7.6.4 may also have problems...

    I highly recommend that downgrade you the firmware to 7.6.1

    There should be no need to map the ports of a server hosted outside your network... so I'm having a problem reading your post... this server hosted within your network or outside it? Cannot open ports to a hosted server on the outside and it is simply useless to.

    If the firmware downgraded on the TC does not work... I think you have routing problems and the best solution is a cheap substitute for router... cheap... for example a WR1043ND v2 or v3 works perfectly. You can load the better firmware which will also give you better control... < $ 50.
