Here is your primary issue.. you cannot connect with win7 ..
Windows only offers SMB protocol which just about every ISP.. all responsible ones ...block..
Time Capule offers AFP to internet and only AFP.
You need to use a Mac to connect.. then use BTMM and iCloud as there is no dyndns in the TC anyway. (Actually there is a dyndns but only for apple btmm use...  you cannot access.
If you want to or have to use windows.. then get a proper vpn router that offers vpn endpoints to windows and has dyndns.. setup the TC in bridge behind the vpn router and access via vpn .. this is the only safe way of connecting using SMB.

    How do I connect to Time Capsule from a Windows 8.1 machine which is on a Windows domain. I have been able to connect from a Windows 7 machine on a Windows domain to a Time Capsule. Airport utility is not displaying the Time Capsule Win8.1 machine.
    I have checked that the firmware has been updated to 7.6.4 . Similalrly the Win8.1 machine has been loaded with the update specified in another discussion.

    Firstly how are you connecting to the TC.. wireless or ethernet?
    Please open a command window and ping it.. ping by name and by IP address.
    If ping succeeds at least by IP it should work.
    In windows explorer type
    \\10.0.1.1 (or whatever the TC ip is.. that is the default).
    Having the airport utility for windows loaded can help the process. As it loads bonjour for windows.
    7.6.4 firmware on the TC is useless. It works better on 7.6.1
    If the ping does not succeed by either name or IP address yet you have internet through the TC, then your network is setup wrongly. You are have firewalls blocking local IP. Take down all the firewalls.

  • I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    I don't have a DSL or cable modem to access the Internet ... just a mobile WiFi (there is no cable available at our house and the mobile WiFi is our only option). How do I connect my Time Capsule to the Internet via the mobile WiFi?

    LOL!!
    I am in Australia and the ISP... I think both the main ones would fit your description to a T.. big T in particular.
    Your router is really unsuitable.. if it is only wireless and no ethernet.. just buy an ethernet one.
    Do a search on ebay.. 3g router.
    But you can get the TC to join a wireless network.
    It is a non-standard setup that Apple will not support.. the option is hidden.
    If you are on Lion download the 5.6 utility. Go to the wireless set up page and hold down the option key whilst selecting wireless mode.. a new option, join will appear. You can then put in the ssid and passkey of the 3g router.
    But please note the end result of this setup..
    very slow speed. The TC is now a second wireless hop from your clients.. this will halve the speed.
    In this mode the ethernet are deactived.. for reasons only Apple know, they decided you should not use ethernet when doing this.

  • How do I connect my time capsule with a Lynksis wi fi netwotk?

    How do I connect my time capsule with a Lynksis wi fi netwotk?

    You cannot extend or repeat a non-apple router in an apple router..
    You must plug it in via ethernet and then setup roaming network (or if you like a completely separate network.. makes no difference from the TC point of view). TC is in bridge mode. That is router bridge not wireless bridge.. I gave the info on the other thread you are running.. very confusing when you ask in multiple threads.

  • How do I connect my time capsule to iinet Bob ?

    How do I connect my time capsule to iinet Bob ?
    Just started with iinet naked ADSL, can locate/connect my time capsule - help please

    Bob is ok as a modem.. are you using voip?? If not bridge the bob and use PPPoE client in the TC..
    Or use Bob as a full modem router and bridge the TC.. either setup is much of a muchness.

  • How to browse files in time capsule from outstate?

    how to browse files in time capsule from outstate?

    I presume by outstate you mean remote access ie from internet in a different location??
    If so google for remote access time capsule.
    It is simple if you have TC setup as the main router and a static public IP.
    Just go to finder, go, go to server and type in AFP://IPofTC
    The TC has to be checked to allow wan access and use a decent password as the security for AFP is poor.

  • How do I move my Time Capsule from Ethernet back to Wireless?

    Problem: i need to back to wireless use of TC from temporary use of TC via Ethernet.
    Background:
    I have had my Time Capsule set up for years as my Airport / wireless hub and backup. No problem.
    Until I went to restore iPhone from Time Machine and, separate problem, need to connect my MacBook Pro to my Time Machine by Ethernet cable in order to get a direct connection (iPhoto was not restoring from Time Machine wireless, kept hitting I/O errors. Worked fine when I did it with direct Ethernet connection, another story).
    NOW, I can not see to figure out how to revert back to regular, wireless, Airport hub connection (vs. Eternet direct)
    Other information:
    1. When I open Airport Utility it does not "see" my Time Capsule at all.
    2. Also, it does not let me "see" manual setup, or anything else, except for "rescan" which turns up without any results.
    3. The amber light keeps flashing.
    4. Previously I turned TC off, then on by unplugging and plugging. Flashing amber light. Same problem.
    5. All cables are plugged in tight, from ISP/FIOS cable, to TC via Ethernet, and, hopefully temporarily!, from TC to my MacBook Pro via Ethernet cable (which is what I want to undo, and go back to wireless)
    6. I am able to access Internet staying with cable running in configuration in previous point.
    Thanks in adv

    You could have the TC join your existing wireless network as a client, or you can can connect the Time Capsule's WAN port to the modem/router.
    In both cases the TC's "connection sharing" should be set to "Off (Bridge Mode)".
    If the TC "joins" the wireless network you can only back up over your wireless connection, so the second option is preferable.

  • How do I connect my Time Capsule on my modem wirelessly?

    I already have a modem that I use to access the internet wirelessly on my macbook. Is there a way that I can connect my Time Capsule on this modem without having to use an enthernet cable?
    Thanks!

    So you are saying that if I use the AirPort Extreme Base Station  I would be able to connect my TC wirelessly and expend my wireless signal at home?
    No, please see my previous answer.....
    and then use it to expand the internet signal.
    That is not possible. The Time Capsule could "extend" the signal only if it is provided by another Apple router.
    What I did say was.....
    When the Time Capsule "joins" a wireless network, it simply connects to the network...like another computer. If you configure the Time Capsule this way, it becomes a wireless hard drive. it performs no routing functions and it will need to be located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from your main wireless router.
    I am not recommending that you set up the Time Capsule this way, but will provide the steps if you want.
    So, to clarify....
    The Time Capsule can be configured to "join" your existing wireless network. It will not extend or expand the wireless network. The Time Capsule becomes a wireless hard drive in this type of configuration.
    I do not recommend this type fo setup for most users because it is difficult to configure and limits backups to wireless only. You will not be able to connect to the Time Capsule using Ethernet to backup, which is much faster than wireless.

  • Can't connect to Time Capsule from MBA

    Hi,
    For some weeks I am facing an issue connecting to my Time Capsule. My setup is:
    Time Capsule 802.11ac 3TB (the most recent one), running 7.7.2 (latest firmware), setup with Back To My Mac
    Mac Book Air 13" Late 2010, running Mavericks 10.9.1, Airport Utility 6.3.2, setup with Back to My Mac
    iPhone 4S running iOS 7.0.4
    Basically, I can't connect to the Time Capsule from my Mac Book Air:
    Time Machine doesn't see it in the list of backup disks to choose from
    Airport Utility on Mac Book Air doesn't find itHowever, it is listed under "Other Wi-Fi Devices / Remote Base Stations", from there I can configure it (i think this is thanks to the Back To My Mac settings)
    Finder shows it in the left pane, and can connect to it
    AirPort Utility for iOS on my iPhone sees it fine and can configure it with no issue
    What I could get to work:
    Choose "configure other" in Airport Utility File Menu, type IP address and passwd of the Time Capsule, and Airport Utiliy can configure it (but it still not displayed in the main screen)
    After doing this once, the TC became available in Time Machine (seems to work, first backup ongoing...)
    I tried rebooting, removing .plist files, even did a fresh Mavericks install on my Mac Book Air, same issue.
    Any suggestions ? Is this an issue with Airport Utility ?

    I think it more likely an issue with Mavericks networking.
    MOST IMPORTANT.
    Do you have ipv6 set to link-local for the wireless client in the MBA??
    This is now essential.. and automatic doesn't cut it. Set to the actual ipv6 requirement.
    This is not unusual problem BTW..

    For mavericks I would also ensure your TC has all naming that is short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. That includes the TC itself plus the wireless.

  • Can't connect to Time Capsule from Windows

    I have a time capsule that I have set up at work which works great with my laptop (MacBook Pro) at work. However, when I try to map the Time Capsule from home (Windows 7, not the same subnet), I cannot do so.
    I have been able to ping it, as well as access the Time Capsule configuration page through the AirPort Utility that I have installed on my Windows machine at home (I do so by going to File...>Configure Other... and then log on). So I can communicate with it but I can't map it using the Windows "Map Network Drive" command.
    Any thoughts?

    I figured it out. I had to change the Time Capsule to only allow File Sharing with Accounts. Then, using the "Map Network Drive" and \\ipaddressaccountname and - viola!

  • How can I use 2 time capsules in different locations (home/work)?

    I want to use 2 time capsules in different locations (home/work) for backing my macbook pro with time machine. OS: lion.
    I am new mac user and have in general lmited computer programming understanding. So, please, simple step-by-step guidence will be greately appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Andreas

    Each time that  you change location with your Mac, you will need to do the following:
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Time Machine
    Click Select Disk
    Click the Time Capsule to highlight it
    Click Use for Backup

  • How do I connect my Time Capsule directly to the internet cable from the wall?

    My Time Capsule only works if I connect it to my wireless router with a LAN cable. But, when I plug the cable from the wall directly into the Time Capsule, it just blinks orange. What am I not doing right?

    There is no modem in the TC.. you need a modem.. your wireless router is actually a modem router.. not just a modem.. so it could be replaced with a straight modem.. sometimes.. it can be bridged .. sometimes..
    But you still haven't told us enough.. what broadband do you have?
    What model is the existing modem router? How does it authenticate to the ISP?
    Once we know those things we can suggest further options.

  • Can't access a USB Drive connected to Time Capsule from a Windows PC.  Apple Care can't/won't assist.  HELP!!!

    Trying to get my Windows 7 PC to access the USB Drive that is connected to my Time Capsule.  I have a Fat32 Formatted USB drive connected to a 2TB Time Capsule and I'm trying to get access to that drive from a Windows 7 PC.  I've attempted to map the network drive (based on some 3-4 year old articles I could find online) but any time I access a file from the PC, the Time Capsule "freaks out" and disconnects all connections to it which forces me to unplug it to restart the Tim Capsule.  I'm at a loss now as to what to do.
    Spent a few hours talking to Apple about this and much more.  Apple Care can't or won't help with this particular problem (the guy I talked to, as nice and helpful as he wanted to be, had no experience supporting their hardware in a Windows environment).
    Someone has to know how to fix this so, PLEASE, help if you can!

    First off, Archon23, what you want to achieve is possible.  I have access to both my Time Capsule (TC) and the USB drive connected to it, from a Win. 7 and Win. XP machine.
    Here is what I see from the Windows side of things:
         From My Computer - TC USB Drive (Y)
         From Windows HomeNet - Time Capsule:
    Now getting there is the trick.
    One caveat before proceeding:  I am not well versed in Windows Networks, Windows Sharing and Firewall settings so some of the following may not be elegant, may not be absolutely required, and may not be the best way of getting there.  But it is what I did to see both the TC drive and it's attached USB  drive on the Windows side of my network..
    1.) First, I added Airport Utility to the Inbound rules of Win 7 Firewall
    While poking around my Network Sharing and Firewall settings trying to figure this out, I got a Pop-up recommending I do that.  AND I did that. Oh, and while you are at it, make sure you have a Home network established. 
    2.) Next, on a hunch, I installed a USB Wi-Fi Adapter (under $20) to my Win PC, enabled that Wi-Fi connection and disabled my Ethernet connection.  I was getting no where on this matter with my Ethernet connection to a DSL Gateway.  But with a Wi-Fi connection to my AirPort Express Base Station, I made progress.
    3.) Finally, while poking around my Network Sharing Center some more, one by one I started the various network device Setup Wizards in there, and Trouble Shooters, to find the elusive TC/USB devices in question...AND voila, it worked.   And it's stable, been this way for going on two weeks now.
    Good luck.

  • Internet connection to Time Capsule from PC?

    OK, here goes:
    I have a time capsule acting as a router, connected to the internet via a vdsl modem (Huawei). On the LAN I have 2 PC's, a Mac Book Air, and an Apple TV all connecting successfully and able to access both the internet and the TC's hard drive. I have a static IP address (provided by Zen, my ISP). I have managed to connect over the internet to the TC on the MBA using afp:
    <static ip address>, but cannot connect a PC over the internet to the TC. I think I have mapped relevant ports on the TC (548 and 445), but I'm no expert. Are there ports on the vdsl that need mapping, and if so, how does one go about that? Any other ideas? All help welcome - I'm tearing my hair out!
    Thanks

    No blank sorry.. the file should be png or jpg..
    I just do Shift Command 4 .. which offers you a cursor which is able to place a boarder around the object and when you release the mouse will take the shot.. easy and the files are png.
    Ok your public IP is ok. at least from outside the system.
    Now you need to check that the IP inside the system is the same.
    We never discussed OS version you were running.. I should have asked.
    Airport utility in Lion or Mountain Lion is a toy..
    If you run Lion.. download and install 5.6 which is a tool.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    If you run Mountain Lion.. Apple offer nothing but toys.. but you can actually load the tool.. download the above Airport utility version.
    Then download and install unpkg utiity.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    This is excellent tiny tool.. open the unpkg..
    Open the 5.6 dmg.. and drag the pkg across to unpkg and it will load it into a suitably named directory on the desktop for you.. drag the utility to your utility folder.
    Now you can actually control the TC and do some work.
    Check the summary page and make sure the people are giving you a public IP. same as the one you get.
    BUT I also recommend you do a full factory reset of the TC.. as it is running the wrong IP.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3728
    Basically this is same as hard reset but you start with the TC unplugged.. hold in reset..power on the TC.. using your third arm.. without releasing the reset button.. and wait about 10sec until the front led flashes rapidly.
    Then you can redo the setup with a real utility..
