Is there a universal way to configure time capsule for use with magic jack plus?

I've got the magic jack plus connected to my time capsule.  Works most of the time, but lately it's been dropping calls or I'll get error messages stating to check the internet connection.  Most say its related to the router settings.

Note I do not own magic jack but it looks like a standard ATA voip adapter.
How is the TC setup in the network? ie is it bridged or main router.. Is there another router?
Being a non-apple product you will do better sticking with SMB compliant network names.. ie short no special characters no spaces.. Apple by default break these rules.
Also you may have port forwarding issues.. apple do not use upnp most windows and non-apple products will expect and so you might have to open the required ports not just for sip but the actual call RDP packets.
Even if you do open ports apple routers often break port forwarding. You might find it is easier to use a modem router or alternative standard router and bridge the TC.
Look at posts that deal with issues which will be common with airport extreme.

I would say it is not working because you have not forwarded the required ports.. or it just doesn't like Apple routers.. plugged into the Mac, the networking is handled by the Mac.. and is able to auto open ports.. non-apple products cannot generally do that.

  • I recently purchased a new Mac Pro and have been trying to back it up on my Time Capsule for the first time.  However, it says there is no available disk space. This time capsule was used with my old Mac Pro that had a Home vault open on it.

    The time capsule was used with my prior Mac Pro laptop that unfortunately had the home vault active on it.
    My new Mac Book Pro does not have home vault open.  But I am unable to back up my new MAC pro laptop because it says there is not enough storage space available.  Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop? 
    When I go into the time capsule - it shows me NOTHING as being in the backup datas.  So, I don't know where to begin to delete all the old data off the
    time Capsule and start with a completely empty machine. 

    Therefore, t there any way to just completely delete all the old backup data out of my Time Capsule from my prior Mac Laptop?
    Here is how to do this:
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click Manual Setup
    Click the Disks icon at the top of the AirPort Utility window
    Click the Disks tab below the icons
    Click Erase
    The "Quick Erase" option will only take a moment or two
    Now you can backup your MacBook Pro. If you connect an Ethernet cable from the MBP to one of the LAN <-> ports on the TC, the first backup will go 3-5 times faster than wireless.
    Once you have the first backup done, you can use wireless for subsequent backups since they will only take a few minutes

  • How to configure Time Capsule for Automatic Backup AND HARD DRIVE USE

    I tried to configure Time Capsule for back up and as a hard drive. I record music and need to copy the music myself onto an external hard drive for speed, so I want the TC to double as an external hard drive, and do the back up. I want to be able to open the TC as a hard drive, to open my songs from it. Can it do both?

    I finally figured it out. I am able to access my TC from the "shared folder." When I click on it, I get the "connection failed message." I failed to notice the login button in the upper right -- user error due to my Windows based education. The button is very subtle. Once I login, I can create folders and add content.
    I didn't see a partition option. Where is that? Just curious.
    Thanks!

    I have set up Time Capsule to use with Time Machine but when I open Time Machine it 'cannot find' the Time Capsule and I have to 'Select the Disk' each time. In the Next Backup tab it always says "When disk is connected" even though the disk is already connected.

    Your pro doesn't matter.. I presume it is happily working.
    Your imac setup has got messed up because you changed from a local (my book being USB type I presume) to network drive. Did you do a clean install of Lion?
    Did you use the backup from the Pro on the imac? Otherwise I don't see how the Pro shows up in use previous disk. Where is Pondini when you need him??
    You cannot download Time Machine as an App and replace the current version. It is built into the OS.. the only way to do it is a clean install. Unfortunately that might be the only way around the issue.
    There is a number of issues that Pondini has covered in the setup issues of troubleshooting.
    This is the most relevant I think. http://pondini.org/TM/B6.html
    But look at the whole section B setup problems.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    If it was me, I would store all the info you need.. not using TM but using a straight copy of files.
    Then clean install Lion. I doubt any of these issues would exist if you had not installed Lion over existing setup or used a different backup.
    See if you can get Pondini to respond.. !!

  • Can I store iphoto pictures in time capsule and use with pad

    Can I store iphoto pictures in time capsule and use with pad

    We can tell you that it is possible to store separate images on the Time Capsule drive. If however, you are asking if you can access separate images from your Time Machine backups on the Time Capsule, this is not possible.
    How you get the images that your want from iPhoto on your Mac to the Time Capsule drive is a question for the iPhoto experts. It will likely involve "exporting" the files that you want and then moving them using the Finder to the Time Capsule drive.
    How you access those images on the Time Capsule from an iPad is a question for the Using iPad experts.

  • HT1178 Can the time capsule be used with a pc running Windows Vista , 7 or 8 as a backup drive

    Can the time capsule be used with a pc running Windows Vista , 7 or 8 as a backup drive. If so what software do I need to buy?

    Can the time capsule be used with a pc running Windows Vista , 7 or 8 as a backup drive.
    Yes, on XP, Vista and 7. Have not tried 8.
    If so what software do I need to buy?
    Genie Timeline Pro does a very nice job...and it is similar to Apple's Time Machine.  It's not cheap though.  Check with the Genie folks for more info and compatibility with Windows 8.

  • Can time capsule be used with windows programs

    can time capsule be used with windows as a wi fi router? or dose the disk that came with the time capsule work with windows program?

    The wifi router side will work fine.
    The disk that came with the TC should have windows version of airport utility but you can download it.. that is important if you want to setup the TC or use the shared disk.

  • How do I configure Time Capsule to work with 8 port unmanaged switch?

    This is what I want to end up with.
    cable modem
    Time Capsule
                                                            wireless network           8 port unmanaged switch TRENDnet TEGS80G
                                                                                                  entertainment center(TV, xbox 360, dvd, apple tv, ect...)
    I have been using the above setup with an E3000 router in place of the time capsule without any problems, and was expecting to just be able to switch out the E3000 for the time capsule and keep right on rolling. At the moment, without the switch plugged in, using the time capsule as a stand alone wireless router, everything works as intended. However, I don't want to have every device in the house pulling off of wireless. Whenever I plug my switch in I lose internet connectivity. I assume this is because both the switch and the Time Capsule are trying to direct traffic and creating a conflict. I have attempted to disable the NAT in the Airport Utility and this is what happens.
    Where do I go from here, or am I heading in completely the wrong direction?

    Unfortunately, you are on the wrong track, heading in the wrong direction at the moment.
    We need to learn whether you have a simple modem or a modem/router.
    This will determine whether the Time Capsule is to be configured in router mode to provide DHCP and NAT services for the network......or if your "modem" is already doing this.....the Time Capsule needs to be configured in Bridge Mode.
    So, I suggest that you disconnect the switch from the Time Capsule for now, and power everything off except the modem, Time Capsule and the computer you are using to configure the Time Capsule, and get things working correctly first. Then, devices can be added one at a time to verify proper operation.
    If this seems to make sense to you, and you want to move forward, please post back with the make and model number of your cable modem.

  • Configuration of XSQL for use with non-Oracle dbs

    If anyone has positive experiences with configuring XSQL for use with non Oracle databases I'd like to hear how they did it, see tutorials, configuration files, etc.
    Specifically setting up to use MySQL or Postgresql on Linux/FreeBSD would be very interesting.
    Also, does anyone use this without setting mime types? How would you go about this so you could point to the relevant servlets in the page?
    Josh

    I don't understand how setting up for Non-Oracle DB's is related to not setting up the servlet as an extension-mapped servlet.
    It might work, but would you run JSP's
    that way? XSQL behaves very similiarly
    inside to how a JSP runner works, which
    wants to be servlet-mapped.
    However, OAS 4.0.8.1 does not support
    extension mapping and XSQL works there
    so i'm assuming it would work on other
    servers set up that way. It's not
    a configuration we test/certify.

  • Min max lot size time based for use with SNP and PPDS

    Hi all, Is there anyway to set up time based min and max lot sizes? ie we want to have a Max lot size which is small for use with the first 3 months of our plan which starts life in SNP and then converts to PPDS and into blocks for block planning, but months 4 to 36 we want to leave as large max lot sizes as there is no need to have the small max lot sizes for the different horizon.
    As far as I can see there is only a material/plant lot size  and Max lot size and no way to have a different setting in a different time period.
    Thanks
    j

    Hi John,
    As you know, in the product master, the lot size maintenance is time-independent, so that obviously can not be used for your scenario. As per my understanding, to meet this using standard functionality, you can maintain multiple product specific t-lanes (for STRs) and PDSs (planned orders) with required lot size ranges and validity dates (for short or long term horizon). But, again since the validity of t-lanes and PDSs will not be automatically rolling forward so the updating the validities will be a challenge.
    The other option could be to enhance the heuristic functionality at lot size selection step while creating order.
    Regards,
    Umesh

  • Best way to configure Time Capsule with Thomson TG782T modem(Telstra)

    Hi there
    I am looking for the best way to configure my Time Capsule.  I have an ADSL connection and use a Thomson TG782T wireless modem from Telstra as my internet connection.  It is plugged into my iMac via ethernet.  It also provides a wifi connection for iphones, ipads etc.
    I also have a Time Capsule and am looking to use it to extend the wireless network.  It doesn't seem to want to do this for me.  I am guessing that the Time Capsule needs to be in bridge mode, but don't want it to create its own wireless network.  Does this make sense?  Any help gratefully received.
    Thanks!

    I also use TG782T.. although I hacked it to use on non-telstra ISP.. and so I can access voip.
    But you cannot use TC to extend the wireless .. sorry that is not possible.. the Thomson is actually way behind and the only service it offers to extend is WDS and with WEP security.. so unless you plan to use G wireless and WEP .. don't even think about it.
    Bridge the TC and plug it into the Thomson. Create a wireless network of identical name as the Thomson.. actually the Thomson uses a silly name.. just change it to something short and sweet.. TG782T would be excellent. You can also lock the wireless channel instead of auto and use the highest level possible security with your own password.. again not the Telstra one..
    so you end up..
    Now run the same settings on the TC.. go to the wireless page.. set to create a network and use same name.. same security level same password but different channel.
    Your client computers will now connect to whichever device has the stronger signal.. this is called roaming network.
