Apple Airport or Time Capsule with Telstra Air

Is it possible to use an Apple airport or time capsule (connected to the gateway) with Telstra Air enabled? I believe you have to disable the wifi when connecting a gateway to an apple airport which would prevent you from using Telstra Air. Has anyone tried this? Would like to have Telstra Air but don't want to give up the time capsule.

You can only get Telstra Air on the modems listed on this site

If you have one of the modems listed on that page it might work as Brizbrenz mentions, but if your modem is not on that page it definitely won't work

  • Apple TV and Time Capsule with 5ghz

    Hi.
    I have an Apple TV 3rd. generation and a Time Capsule with 2.4 / 5 ghz wifi capability.
    I was wondering that if I connect the Apple TV using the 5ghz network I could improve the speed of download in particular to contents in mi iMac that is connected to the time capsule too.
    Using the traditional wifi 2.4 ghz I can  access my itunes network on the Apple TV.
    But when I switch to the 5GHZ network, I can´t.
    Why?
    Any help please!
    Regards, Edgardo

    5 Ghz may help avoid interference, but it also has shorter range, it depends on the circumstances surrounding your location whether it's a better option or not.

  • Setting up wireless printer through Apple Airport and Time Capsule

    Hi, using Apple MacBook Air OS X and trying to set up a Brother 5370DW wireless printer.  I have used the install CD of printer, and added it to the Apple, but when I try to use it wirelessly it wants to know the Network Security Settings Information.  I have the print-out from the printer setup that printed out the Network Configuration, but it isn't helping me with what the setup CD wants.  I need to know how to find:
    SSID/ESSUD (Network Name)
    Authentication Method
    Encryption Mode
    Encryption Key
    The printout from printer setup shows some of this information, but not sure if it's what they want to register the printer's wireless signal.  The "Easy Setup" wizard doesn't seem to work and the types of utilities they mention for having these settings automatically set don't seem to be on this system. 
    I just want to set up the printer to work wirelessly, it works with the ethernet cable attached.
    The Cox cable signal comes into a Motorola modem, then goes to a Mac Time Capsule, which is connected by ethernet cable to a Mac Time Capsule.  However, there is a Ooma telephone unit that is also hooked into the Time Capsule if that makes any difference.
    Help sites with Cox tell me to contact router mfg, Apple says maintenance period and additional periods have expired.  If want further help need $50 for 30-days.  Any guidance or referral would be appreciated.

    SSID/ESSUD (Network Name)
    Authentication Method
    Encryption Mode
    Encryption Key
    SSID/ESSUD = the Network Name of the Time Capsule's wireless network
    Authentication Method = the Wireless Security mode (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) of the Time Capsule's wireless network
    Encryption Mode = If Wireless Security is set to "WPA/WPA2 Personal" on the TC, then this mode = TKIP; if Wireless Security is set to "WPA2 Personal," then this mode = AES
    Encryption Key = wireless security password of the TC's wireless network

  • How do I replace my AirPort Extreme Time Capsule with a new one?

    I'm having issues setting up my new time capsule. I currently have the first gen time capsule and I'm having difficulty setting up the new one. The system is not recognizing the new one. What do I need to do??

    You must use the latest utility 6.3 in the lion/mountain lion OS.. You must turn on ipv6 local link.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
    If you are trying to do it over wireless.. reset to factory and start over.. the new unit must be at factory settings to work with the utility.
    IMHO use ethernet.. it is far superior.. You don't have to use it once it is setup.
    But the setup will go easier with hard wired connection.

  • Apple Airport(Extreme), time capsule, what is better?

    I am slightly confused what is the difference between the time capsule and airport and different model, etc. I have Apple TV and an IPad so what benefit can I gain from getting either of these product what features do each posses and what requirements do they need to work?

    Please look over a comparison of the Apple routers here:

  • I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for several years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both?

    I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for a couple years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both the iMac and MacBook Air? I don't mind losing earlier backups. I have excluded some items from backing up, but since the Airport Time Capsule is full, I can't even begin to back up the MacBook Air.

    On your Mac.......
    Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click on the Disks tab at the top of the window
    Click Erase Disk
    On the next window that appears, select the Quick Erase option, then click Erase
    The operation will only take a few minutes.
    Now you are ready to start new backups of both Macs.  Back up one Mac first, then back up the other.  Do not try to back up both Macs as the same time.

  • New help with my mac air and airport extreme time capsule dont know how to save to time capsule and use as a external hd

    new help with my mac air and airport extreme time capsule dont know how to save to time capsule and use as a external hd would like 2 store my home videos and pictures on the time machine (ONLY) as the MAC AIR has storage space limited space please help. THANK YOU.

    See the info here about sharing or using the TC for data.

    It is extremely important you realise.. the Time Capsule was never designed for this.
    It is a backup target for Time Machine.. that is the software on the computer that does backups.. it has no direct connection to the Time Capsule.
    It has no ability to back itself up.. unlike all other NAS in the market. It is therefore likely one day you will lose all your files unless you seriously work out how to backup.
    The TC is slow to spin up the hard disk and fast to spin down. iTunes and iPhoto will continually lose connection to their respective libraries.
    iPhoto in particular is easy to corrupt when you move photos over wireless into the library.. once corrupted all is corrupt. A single photo will ruin it all.. so backup is utterly essential.
    Time Machine cannot do backups of network drives. ie the TC. You will need a different backup software like CCC. You will then need another target to backup to..

  • Can I use airport time capsule with a hotspot network?

    Can I use airport time capsule with a hotspot network?

    Can I use airport time capsule with a hotspot network?
    Very very poorly..
    It can join a wireless network..
    See instructions here.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5719954?tstart=0
    End result is super slow wireless connection to the TC and all packets pass through the hotspot so expect internet to drop to nothing while you are backing up.

  • Extending a time capsule with airport express twice

    Hi,
    I have been trying to extend my existing wireless network recently but it never ended up how I wished...
    I have one 4th generation Time Capsule (A1409) and two Airport Express 802.11n (1st generation A1264).
    All currently have MAC Address base authentication and no security in place for was of testing (security not relevant at this point in time).
    When I extend my Time Capsule with either Airport Express this works like a charm, the LEDs are all green and connection works for client devices.
    When I extend my Time Capsule with both Airport Express the same applies, everything works.
    However what I have found not to works it extending my Time Capsule with one Airport Express and then extending this Airport Express with the second Airport Express. While all LEDs are green and the second Airport is seen in the Airport Utility, I find no client are ever able to connect to it and alway either connect to the first Airport Express or to the Time Capsule. This is an issue I the area I want to cover is pretty big and I need the second Airport Express for the additional reach.
    I haven't found anything against this setup, it however appears you can't connect to the second Airport. The Airport Utility would even accurately depict the situation with Airport Express one dotted line to Time Capsule, and Airport Express two dotted line to Airport Express one.
    However no connection seam possible to Airport Express two.
    I have swapped Airport Express one and two, and in this case Airport Express gets the clients and Airport Express one now extending Airport Express two gets none.
    Is this an expected behavior, i.e. should I give up or is there anything I can do about this ?

    However what I have found not to works it extending my Time Capsule with one Airport Express and then extending this Airport Express with the second Airport Express.
    Apple's "extend a wireless network" feature will only allow you to extend the signal one level, not two. It's possible to have more than one device extending the signal, but each extender must connect directly to the main base station.....not to another device that is already extending the signal.
    The Airport Utility would even accurately depict the situation with Airport Express one dotted line to Time Capsule, and Airport Express two dotted line to Airport Express one.
    This is an illusion. AirPort Express is "joining" the wireless network.....not extending it. When the Express "joins" a network, it can be used for AirPlay, or a remote printer could be connected to the USB port, but the Express will not provide any additional wireless signal coverage when it joins a network.
    Is this an expected behavior
    Yes. I can try to look up Apple's support document that explains this if you want more information, but you may likely already have all the information that you need. Let us know.

  • Network apple time capsule with other modem

    I am way over my head here.  I am trying to figure out how to "bridge" my new apple time capsule with my ATT Uverse Modem.  I have the time capsule primarily for backup, but it serves a wireless function as well does the ATT Uverse Modem.   Someone did this for me in the past, but my Time Capsule died, and I disconnected it.  I can not figure out how to wire it all back together.  Is there a diagram out there?

    Plug the TC into a computer.. complete isolation from the network.
    Open the airport utility.
    Put the TC in bridge mode.
    Go to the wireless page and setup wireless .. create a wireless network. I recommend you do roaming network and so space the TC and the uverse modem by a few feet.
    But it is up to you.. you can use a completely different network name and security if you want.

    Although the article is for multiple apple routers it will be fine with 2 different routers.
    Only I would set fixed wireless channels.

  • Time Capsule with Airport Express, AirExp won't go to solid green

    My Time Capsule is working fine, solid green light. My Airport express will not sync to Time Capsule, blinking amber light. Airport Express worked fine with Linksys router; but, can't get it to work, green light, with Time Capsule. The Air Express is a couple of years old. Is that the reason? Any suggestions?
    Thanks,

    Then the version of your TC and your Express will show up on the Airport Utility menu....
    Just click on the Express and it will show you the version of the software for the Express.
    If not, I can't help you anymore than this.
    Sorry...

  • Any tricks to swapping out my old time capsule with a new airport extreme I am also using airport expresses

    Any tricks to swapping out my old time capsule with a new airport extreme I am also using airport expresses?  The hard drive on the TC quit working.

    I do plan on using an external USB HDD for time machine backups.  I have both 802.11g and 802.11n used for playing music via stereos.
    I would recommend against it. Apple does not support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks (USB HDD attached to the AirPort Extreme). Although folks have done so, we get a number of them here asking for help with their corrupted backups. If your backups are critical to you, please use another means (like connecting the USB HDD directly to your Mac) to do so.
