An Apple TV, A Time Capsule (or not), and an iPhone...

Ok so basically I want to use a Time Capsule (or something else if you think that would be better) as storage that my iphone can access to airplay to my Apple TV.
Now, I have read that using the Time Capsule in this way isn't recommended, but I if there is a better recommendation out there without using a running OS on a live computer that would be amazing.
I know this is basically a setup for a NAS but I don't feel I am technically savvy enough on my own to choose the equipment knowing for sure it will work for what I want.
If there is anyone out there who has a setup similar to what I'm describing and has some advice I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you again.

You do realise this cannot be itunes.. moving your itunes library to the TC and trying to play it from iphone is pointless.. it won't work.
If you are using some other media player on the iOS device that plays MP4 or AVI or whatever format your video is in that is fine.. but for most people you must use iTunes... and that means a computer turned on.
Of course if you used an actual media player.. like WD live TV then you can play files directly over the network from the TC... no need for airplay or iphone or anything else. That is because it is a proper player.. the ATV is a streamer.. the Media player has to be in the iphone.. and that is where you will find it difficult. Airplay seldom works well because you have to pick up the files from the TC.. copy them to the iphone.. copy them back to the TC in the airplay stream so it goes to the ATV.. it is going to jitter and pause.. because wireless does not do such things well.

My Windows Laptop does not connect to my apple 4th generation time capsule can not connect to internet.

I have a HP laptop running Windows 7. I a habe a 4th generation time capsule for wireless internet. everytime my laptop restarts it will not pick up and run the internet. i have to run the trouble shooter program to get it to reconnect. Sometimes this works sometime it does not the laptop and time capsule are both up todate on all the softwhere.

Is the TC working in router or bridge mode??
Have you set SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.. not apple names.
Have you set wireless with different name for 5ghz.. and set channels manually and tested them.
11, 6, 1 for 2.4ghz in that order. Low.. say 36 or 40 and around 150 for 5ghz.
Test with no wireless security.. is it then working.. if so, then set wpa2 personal security with a password of 10-20 characters pure alphanumeric.
On a computer /device that does work find out the following.
DNS and Gateway.
When the PC connects to the wireless does it get the right values for DNS and Gateway.. if not then the TC is either incompatible or wireless driver is not compatible.
The fact that your windows is up to date does not mean the wireless drivers are.. Intel make the worst drivers.. if the laptop has intel wireless card. Expect trouble.
Download direct from Intel the most current driver and the last 3 or 4 available.. not even the latest is a guarantee it will work.
Even if everything is right.. dns gateway.. connection.. security.. wireless channel.. it is wireless.. it can still refuse to move packets.. it is simply the nature of the beastie. Wireless is 80% voodoo still.
Buy a different wireless chipset USB stick.. or get a wireless router like a TP-Link.. very cheap, $30-50 and use it as a WAP plugged into the TC.

Time Capsule does not appear in iPhone 4 wifi network setting

I just set up Time Capsule on my IMac. I was able to connect to the wifi network but do not see the TC on my phone's wifi network settings. I have the Airport Utility app and I do not see my phone on the any of the Airport utility maps on the Mac or phone. I tried to set up my IPad 3 and no luck it only recognizes the wifi network and not TC.
I tried to use the demo that appears on Apple's TC info link and I do not see the same info on my phone when following the directions. I am a new IMac user my be I have a setting wrong. Please help.
http://www.apple.com/timecapsule/wireless.html

The iOS devices seem to have issues if the wireless name is AFP type..
I suggest you go back into the TC setup.. you may need to use 5.6 utility.. to get finer controls.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Change the wireless name to short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.. I also recommend a different name for 5ghz wireless in the advanced wireless page.
Set the wireless to fixed, a/n - b/g
And then lock the wireless channel.. for 2.4ghz, set to 1, 6 or 11 in turn as the only non-overlapping channels.

My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi

Following a question solved on March 24 by LaPastenague, but gone bad again.
Apple AirPort Time Capsule
I felt the need for a physical backup of my data, as I would not completely trust the different clouds. I use, and have used Dropbox for 4-5 years and are very satisfied with that, but I am still not sure if or when a political lunatic will shut off the internet.
I purchased the Apple AP Time Capsule 2T, because all my other stuff are Apple, and that it's wireless. My old backup is Maxtor 300 GB.
Since we stay 2-3 weeks on two locations, one in Norway and one in Sweden (two different countries) we must use Mobile Broadband 4G, cables or fibre connections are useless for us, and we don't have it up to the houses. I have one mini router for each country, we bring with us iPhones, iPads, iMac, Apple TV, APExpress. When we pass the boarder I change the mini router, and the system continues working perfect on the WiFi, except the APExpress that needs to be reconfigured, but then it works.
The APTC was difficult to make working as it would not accept to be in an existing network, but with good help from the Apple Community, LaPastenague, with forcing the TC connect to the APE with Ethernet cable in bridge mode, ref "My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi" from March 24, the problem was solved and all gadgets worked together in a perfect harmony, until we changed location.
Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
I have a slight feeling that the two WiFi bands are making the trouble as during the configuration of the TC sometime the last figure 6 and 7 pops up, and that has something two do with the two different 2,4 and 5 GHZ bands
So, I am curious if you have any idea ?
I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?

I can deal with the last question first and easily.
I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?
Open the airport utility .. go to the disk tab and select erase.
When you select erase you will get mulitiple options.
Quick removes the file table but does not delete the files,, it takes 2min or less.
A Zero out data is the secure way,, by writing 0 ie low level drive format.
It can take several hours..
7 pass will take a week.. not recommended..
35 pass erase is ridiculous.. it would take a month.. put an ax through the TC. It is quick and better.
Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
The fact that it did work and has now failed might point to faulty unit.
The only way to tell is reset it properly to factory and start over.
Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Note..
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Generally having multiple wireless AP should not cause problems.. but it is better to set channels manually.. so it doesn't go beserk rotating channels.
Remember to keep all names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Sadly though the Apple routers have no logging now and no SNMP and almost nothing to help diagnose a problem, so if it continues .. take it back to apple.. they have given you no other method of fixing it.

How to setup apple time capsule with FIOSinternet and VZ router?)

Hello,
I have Apple time capsule and the VZ Router MI424WR. I current set up:
1. VZ router - wireless off, the rest is standard
2. Time capsule: Wireless on in Bridge mode
Result: Internet works but the wireless network is very in-stable. Airtunes is nearly not usable.
I searched in the Internet and there was several comments that is is not a good combination. Therefore it is recommended to convert the VZ router in a modem mode and use only the Time capsule as the router. I tried this several times I do not get it to work. I followed this procedure (http://data.agaric.com/node/2160) but then I need the PPPoE Account number and password. But there do I get this? The Verizon support was not really helpful.
Please, is there a good and complete description to solve that issue?
Thanks in advance
Moebius

Go back to your first setup ...
Verizon router with wireless turned off
Apple Time Casule with wireless turned on
Method 1:
With the Time Capsule in "Bridge Mode", if I remember correctly, you should connect the WAN port to one of the open ports on the Verizon router (I believe bridge mode also turns off the DHCP server on the Time Capsule, if not, find that and turn if off as well).   Change the addressing mode for the Time Capsule to "static" and assign it an address on the LAN which is not in use (choose something you know is out of the way but on the LAN -- I suggest 192.168.1.180 to start -- you can change it once you get everything working).
If it doesn't work this way for you, move the cable from the WAN port on the Time Capsule to Port 1 and try again.
Method 2:
This results in a router behind a router setup, but unless you have devices connected directly to the Verizon router, it shouldn't be a problem.
With the Time Capsule disconnected from the Verizon router, turn on "Connection Sharing" (not bridge mode) and make sure DHCP is enabled on the Time Capsule. You need to change the address range being used by the Time Capsule (which I think defaults to 192.168.1.x to another network -- I suggest, 192.168.2.x with a netmask of 255.255.255.0 and give the router an address of 192.168.2.1 on the LAN side. Now, connection the WAN port to one of the Verizon router LAN ports. If you had anything connected to the Verizon LAN ports, move those over to the LAN ports on the Time Capsule and reboot them.
Method 3:
This is the least desirable of the scenarios because it relies on Verizon's crappy radio in their router (the Time Capsule has a much better radio and support 802.11n as well as b and g) whereas Verizon's only support b/g.    Go back to the configuration for Method 1, but also turn OFF wireless on the Time Capsule and turn on wireless on the Verizon router.   Try both bridge scenarios described -- using the WAN port first and if that didn't work, then moving the connection to port 1.
There is no scenario where you can place the Verizon router behind the Time Capsule -- since I believe Verizon is using all MoCA connections for the WAN side of their connection (you'd have to get Verizon to convert you to ethernet WAN and then they would not support you most likely for any STB issues with your FiOS if the Time Capsule was between the ONT and their router ... so don't even bother wasting time there ... more headaches than it would be worth.
If you're still not sure exactly what each configuration screen on the time capsule should say, post some screen snaps (or the configuration settings/choices which you are unsure about and someone will likely know the answer here).

2nd Gen Time Capsule - will not power up - just stopped working all of a sudden - I have tried other power outlets - I have tried pressing the reset button - no light

2nd Gen Time Capsule - will not power up - just stopped working all of a sudden - I have tried other power outlets - I have tried pressing the reset button - no light

The power supply is shot. But that it lasted even this long is the wonder.. not that it died.
The TC runs too hot..
Look on ebay for "Time Capsule power supply"
You can get a replacement and fix it although the economics are not so good.. it is probably time for a new TC.
If you can DIY it is really only a few dollars worth of capacitors that go bad.

For a bunch of alternatives.

Time Capsule, DHCP not providing correct gateway address

I have gone back and forth between my AP Extreme and Time Capsule and have determined that Time Capsule is not providing the proper gateway address to my wireless clients. Instead of providing the correct gw address it provides the address I assigned the base station. This is contrary to my Airport Extreme which provides the proper gw address to my wireless clients. Sounds like a bug in the DHCP base station software. Any thoughts?

I have a very similar problem. I originally had cable broadband and a Airport Extreme (AE) upgraded to 7.3.1 all worked fine. The AE was being used as a DHCP server to distribute the dynamic IP address provided by the ISP. I then replaced the AE for a Time Capsule (TC) and installed a new 802.11n Airport Express. I upgraded the TC and AExpress to 7.3.1. The TC was setup identically to the now replaced (disconnected and switched off) AE.
Unfortunately the TC failed to work as a DHCP server. It did not recognize the ISP provided dynamic IP address and replaced it with an 'Invalid' IP address which of course meant no internet access. I then replaced the TC with the original AE (identically set up) and all worked fine, including the AExpress.
While I wait for Apple to fix the TC firmware I am running the AE as the DHCP Server and the TC as a wireless bridge to the AExpress. Time Machine is recognizing Time Capsule and backups from two macs are working fine.

Time capsule does not appear in shared devices

All of the sudden my Time Capsule does not show up in the shared devices. It's all up to date, it is working fine as a router and internet connection works fine. It also show up in the airpot utility and the light is green however it does not show up on the shared devices so I cannot access the data folider anymore.
Furthermore Airport utility indicates that the disk is damaged but I cannot repair it because I cannot access it.
Any ideas? (beside doing a reset which I have already done)

That is bad.. the light should not be green unless you told the TC to ignore the problem.
A damaged disk has to be replaced.. if the SMART has gone off or is showing as bad or no capacity then you need to replace the disk (or if under warranty.. the whole TC).
How old is the TC?
Model number from the base A1xxx helps.
You can try doing an erase from the airport utility if the disk shows up at all. But if SMART has gone off the disk will need replacement anyway.
If less than 1year return to apple for warranty replacement.. and if you have applecare on a computer it will cover the TC for up to 3years although the rules are strict.. so check.
See instructions for removal of the hard disk.
http://www.ifixit.com/Device/Apple_Time_Capsule_Model_A1302
Certainly if the TC is older than 3years.. it might be better to consider replacement. Certainly replacing a hard disk could be just short fix until the power supply also goes.

Time capsule does not appear in the finder.

My time capsule appears in airport utility. It is ready to go. I have it on ethernet because airport isn't a very powerful wireless router. The time capsule does not appear in the finder. It does not appear in the disc utility. It does not appear in time machine. The airport utility will do factory resets, get it ready for internet, whatever. The rest of my net work can not see it.
I have done the finder preferences. I have restarted the computer, jiggered the sharing preferences, done factory resets, tried to find sparce bundles and sparse bundles, reset the finder, force quit finder, tried to find finder plsts, trawled the discussion pages, tried to find server addresses and apple ids. Nothing seems to work.
Time capsule never seems to work as smoothly as it supposed to. I shudder to present my problems to apple support because I know that its a long road and will probably end in tears. But here I am, naked before this disappointing edifice.
Does anyone have any ideas?

What is the make and model number of your modem?
I have a microwave modem on my roof. I don't think that has anything to do with this. I am not using my airport for a wireless router, only as a time capsule connected by ethernet. The Airport Utility calls my airport : Airport Extreme 802.11 ( 1st Generation )
Is the Time Capsule acting as your main router or is another device handling those services?
No, I have a lyncsis router. The wireless router function on airports doesn't seem to work very well. I don't think thats a problem with mine. My brothers have gone with lyncsis as well.
Was the Time Capsule visible in the Finder before, and is now "lost", or has it never appeared in the Finder?
It appeared on my previous laptop. That died. Now I have an imac. The airport has never appeared on the imac.
Thanks for trying to help so quickly

Time Capsule crashing; not appearing in AirPort Utility

Hi all
My Time Capsule keeps on crashing, and is currently not appearing in the AirPort Utility window. I restarting it by unplugging it and plugging it back in again, but it will randomly crash again, or the sessions will be interrupted on the TC drive and the additional HDD that's plugged into it. I'm not really sure what's going on here. It's not like I'm sitting too far away from the Time Capsule (less than 3m, in fact).
The only thing that's going on that could be causing this, as far as I can see, is my attempting to migrate my files and folders from my old PowerBook to my new MacBook Pro (a procedure that is not, in all honestly, going all that well).
Thanks in advance

Rob,
If you don't mind a few more suggestions...
*_Time Capsule Weak Signal Strength / Dropped Connections_*
Forgive the size of the post, but the suggestions below have helped others with similar issues. Try each topic individually and see if things improve, If not move on to the next one.
*Keep the Time Capsule Cool*
Some posters have observed that when they positioned the Time Capsule for better ventilation and cooling, their network connectivity issues resolved themselves. Also avoid locating the devise within poorly ventilated cabinets or piling items around or on top of it.
*Time Capsule Orientation*
While the location you chose to setup your Time Capsule may be acceptable, but the direction it is oriented can have an effect on signal strength. It appears that the signal of the Time Capsule does not radiate equally from all sides of the devise.
The antennas within the devise are positioned along the 3 smooth sides. That is, there is no antenna on the side bearing the ports and cables. As a result, position the devise with the ports and cables AWAY from the direction of most of the clients that will be connecting to it.
*Cordless Phones*
Some users have discovered that the cordless phones they have in the home occupy or are near the same bandwidth as their wireless network (2.4Ghz or 5Ghz). Try temporarily disabling the handsets and their bases and see if network connectivity improves. If so you may need to change the channel that the phone uses or purchase phones that occupy a different bandwidth.
*Proximity To Other Devices*
One poster observed: “Finally have full access, full speed, and full functionality. Initially I installed the Time Capsule at the location of my cable, cable modem... which of course was next to my HDTV, DVD, Apple TV, Amplifier, etc. Get the picture? After about 4 weeks of starts and stops, resets and repeated initial backups, I moved the unit to another location, closer to my Mac, and in an area where there are no other electronics. Now, it runs perfect.” [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1734818&tstart=0]
*Change Firewall Settings* #
Go to System Preferences --> Security.
Click the Firewall tab.
Change setting to “Set access for specific services and applications”.
The System will now ask you when each process wants to penetrate the firewall. Once you click “Allow” each time you are asked, it will be saved in the pane at the bottom of this window and it should never ask you again.
One poster observed, “Since I made this change, my wireless has been strong and Time Machine works like a champ and the impact on my network performance is minimal. I speculate that the change in performance is due to security protocols or services that run in the 'allow all incoming connections' and 'allow only essential services' modes. Whatever the reason this fix has worked for me for over 2 months without resetting my airport connection or time capsule.” [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8348496#8348496]
*Change Time Capsules’ Channel*
Launch Airport Utility.
Select the device on the left.
Click "Manual Setup."
Select “Airport” in the toolbar.
Click the "Wireless" tab.
If “Channel” is set to “Automatic” try changing to a different one. Holding the Option key down and clicking the drop-down menu should provide more channels to choose from. If you have another wireless router operating, ensure that each devices’ channels are as far apart as possible.
Click “Update”.
Close Airport Utility.
*Preferred Networks & Airport Services*
You may be experiencing interference from other networks in your neighborhood. When you click the Airport menu are there other networks listed other than your own?
If so, is your network at the top of the list? It should be.
Go to System Preferences --> Network --> Select Airport on the left.
Click "Advanced". In the “Airport” tab note the various local wireless networks that Airport detects. Is the network you prefer to connect to at the top of the list? If not drag it to the top. Are there other networks you never intend to connect to (an old work network, or a neighbors network)? Then highlight them and click the "-" button.
Make sure “Remember any network this computer has joined” is checked.
Click "OK".
For "Network Name" be sure your network is selected and then click "Apply".
Is Airport (wireless) your primary means of connecting to your network? If so, is Airport at the top of the list of services on the left? It should be.
Click the small “Gear” button at the bottom of the window and select “Set Service Order”.
Now drag Airport to the top of the list.
Click “OK”. Click “Apply”.
Now see if network connectivity has improved.
*Transmit Power & Wide Channels*
If you are using the 802.11n only (5GHz) radio mode, you can also select to use wide channels, which provide higher data throughput in your network.
Launch Airport Utility
Select your Time Capsule on the left.
Click “Manual Setup”.
Select “Airport” in the toolbar.
Click the “Wireless” tab.
Click “Wireless Options...” at the bottom of the window.
Adjust the “Transmit Power” to 100%.
Put a check mark in the box labeled “Use Wide Channels”. (If you are using a 802.11a/b/g (2.4GHz) radio mode then select “Interference Robustness”)
Click “Done”.
Click “Update” in the lower right hand corner.
Wait for the Time Capsule to restart and then see if your network speeds improve.
*Faulty Airport Card*
One poster reported: “I reckoned the fault must be with the Macbook’s hardware so took the plunge and got a new airport card fitted to my Macbook and now everything is working fine. At last I have a working Macbook!” [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1719326&tstart=0]
If you think this might be the case, follow the steps outlined in this KB article to determine if your Airport card is still being detected by your system:
[http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2601]
Let us know if any of the above helped improve your situation.

Time capsule does not show the blue bars near backing up. Any idea why?

Time Capsule is not showing that it is backing up. Any idea why?

For some reason it was going in a loop. Support had me omit some com.apple....plist files. Retarted and Tiime Capsule started as though it had never seen the external hard drive. I set it up again and it worked fine.
Thank you,

Can I purchase apple care for time capsule that is less than 90 days old?

can I purchase apple care for time capsule that is less than 90 days old?

Sure enough...
The 90 day period basically applies for telephone support if you don't have Apple Care (a three year apple hardware/apple software coverage that would be similar to an extended warranty for your TV) with the outstanding feature that you have unlimited telephone support for the entire 3 year period beginning when your Mac was first purchased.
Your situation is similar to mine: I bought my MBP this august and just (literally) bought the 2TB TC. So the three year period began when the Mac was purchased and will run out when the MBP reaches it's exact 3 year anniversary. I went 4 or 5 levels above the sales staff and reached an individual at Apple whose exact title is: Sales & Service Management Representive. The first question I asked was is my TC covered under Apple Care and for how long, etc.: as the TC (as well as the MBP) have only a limited1 year warranty without Apple Care.
If you've been following the posts on this exact site and several others, you'll see many upon many TC's experience a premature death around 18-24 months. So IMHO I think Apple Care is a good deal: coverage for your Mac as well as the TC (double coverage).
On a lighter note something like double your pleasure double your fun: Xerox your paycheck!
cheers...

WOW "Time Capsule does not support iTunes Library"

I just got off the phone with 2 people at apple care (a technician and product specialist) and i explained to them my problem with time capsule and itunes and they both stated "we dont support the itunes folder being on time capsule and this isnt something we can offer support for." i have a feeling this should have been mentioned in the specs seeing that most people are using it for exactly that.
anyone else have this problem with apple care people completely brushing you off on problems with itunes/time capsule?

sorry i had posted another topic with one of the problems i was having and hadnt received any help which led me to call apple support. im not the only one that has discovered this and if you call apple they will tell you flat out as they did myself and others on this board that time capsule doesnt support having an itunes folder on it. you can do it, but they told me "time machine cannot manage the itunes folder properly over any sort of air disk". while yes you can move your library and yes it will play the music their are alot of bugs that they cant offer support for. apparently most of the problems stem from the permissions and scripts itunes uses to manage and update the files in your library. for example if you import a song you already have into itunes once its on your time machine and hit the "replace existing" option it will replace it in itunes but it will double up on the songs in the time capsule folders. another problem is in deleting and/or moving itunes files/folders on time capsule. while sometimes it allows it, most of the time the files "cannot be completed due to being in use". which you then have to close itunes, eject time capsule, re mount, and try again. im a huge fan of apple and have been for many many years and this is the first time ive ever been disappointed in an apple product. its a great product its just not meant for what myself and many others on this board were intending on using it for. and its a little unfair that they dont express this conflict in the description. but hey if you dont believe me then call apple and ask them yourself. i did. just wanted to notify others is all.
*sorry for the double post. it wasnt showing up at first

Time capsule light not on - any thoughts on what is wrong?

Has anyone experienced your TIme Capsule light not being on after rebooting several times?

Leave it off for a few hours.. if it gives a flicker and then fails again.. the Power Supply is indeed dead.
How old is it and what model.. A1xxx from the rubber foot?
It is absolutely normal on the Gen1 and Gen2 TC for this to happen.. indeed if it is one of those, A1254 or A1302 it has lasted longer than most.
If it is Gen3 ie A1355 it is a different issue.
Apple will replace if in warranty of course or less than 3years old and you have applecare on a computer, with certain conditions.
You can repair the earlier ones if you are so inclined.. and Apple cannot or will not help.
See https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem s/apple-time-capsule-repair
Somebody is selling Delta power supplies new from HK which are being resold in the US for $10 more on ebay.. just look it up.

Airport time capsule does not appear within wi-fi networks on my OSX neither on my IOS devices, even though the backup for my OSX is on progress. why it does not appear?

Airport time capsule does not appear within wi-fi networks on my OSX neither on my IOS devices, even though the backup for my OSX is on progress. why it does not appear?
Is it because the backup on progress?

Hmmm.. ok.. well you are kind of on your own.. purchasing from another country leads to problems.. especially as the TC itself is regional .. all the setup applies to the region it is sold in.
Make sure you are using ipv6 in the computers..
See
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
The 6.3 utility will not work without it.
Make sure all names are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Do a full reset and start over.
But there are no more controls.. you cannot set mode..
You can set wireless channels.. so do .. try different wireless names for the different bands.. and set fixed channels.. whatever your country allows, usually 2.4ghz you can use 1, 6, 11 but 13 maybe an option as well. 5ghz is much less clear and there are more variation. Just set to one channel and then another.
Set WPA2 Personal security with a 10-20 character password .. pure alphanumeric mix of upper and lower case and numbers.

An Apple TV, A Time Capsule (or not), and an iPhone...
