HT1178 I have purchased a Time Capsule 2TB recently, and I have not been able to complete the initial setup.

I have recently purchased a Time Capsule 2 TB. I have connected it to my BT Infinity Hub via ehternet cable. After connection, the orange continues to flash.
The capsule shows both an IP address and a LAN IP address. It also indicates that its network is Iain's Wi-Fi Network (setup by default).
the Capsule has a couple of messages as follows:
1. Double NAT - This Airport base station (Capsule) has a private IP address on ethernet WAN port, using NAT. It suggests changing setting from DHCP and NAT to bridge mode.
2. Setup over WAN - This Airport base station (capsule) is setup over ethernet WAN port, which decreases network security.
I have tried a soft reset, but nothing has changed and I do not know what changes I need to make to allow the capsule to complete its setup.
I would appreciate an expert opinion on what I need to do to fix the Time Capsule setup.

Please open AirPort Utility and click on the Time Capsule icon
Click Edit in the small box that appears
Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window and change the Network Mode to "Off"
Now click the Network tab at the top of the window
Make sure that the setting for Router Mode is Off (Bridge Mode)
Click Update to save the settings
You should have a green light in about 30 seconds.  All is well now.
