MY AIRPORT TIME CAPSULTE WONT CONNECT TO THE INTERNET

i bought a new airport time capsule.  connected it to my modem/router via ethernet cable.  plugged it in, and cant get it setup from there.  the airport utility is saying it's not connected.  help would greatly be appreciated!

Are you using the WAN port on the TC to the LAN port on the router? Do the connectivity LED come on?? That must happen to have connectivity.
The TC must be setup by wireless.. so in the computer make sure you are close enough to the TC to pick up wireless signal.
Factory reset the TC and start over if it is failing.
Make sure the wireless is set with IPv6 to link-local, as this is now essential for the setup.
It should then appear as a new device under wifi and in the airport utility.

  • I can't get my airport time capsule to connect to the internet

    I can't get my new airport time capsule to connect to the internet. It works fine with my linksys router

    We cannot help with that amount of info..
    What internet type and modem do you have? Exact modem make and model may help.
    Is the linksys router also the modem? You do know there is no modem in the TC?
    How is the Linksys authenticating if it is plugged into the modem??
    If cable did you shut down the cable modem for at least 20min to change the router.. this is always required with cable system.. often the time is longer.. one hour or overnight even.

  • Time Capsule wont connect to the internet

    I have a 17" macBook Pro 2.33 GHz
    I have a 1t Time capsule
    I have a netgear router
    My internet connection works via ethernet. from comcast box to macbook pro
    My internet connection works from comcast box to time capsule to MacBook pro via ethernet
    I have called comcast and had them reset the box many times
    I have left everything unplugged overnight
    I have started the time capsule first and the comcast box first
    I have reset all devices
    I have all the latest software
    on the time capsule after starting up it flashes green goes solid then flashes again
    My comcast box is an Arris ( I know about the standby mode)
    The only time I was able to get it to work was to go from my comcast box to a router then to the time capsule. It doesnt work anymore.
    I have tried plugging it into the connection port, and ethernet port.
    I have tried all the router ports.
    I have run assistant, diagnostics, renewed my dchp(sp) lease
    Wireless works everywhere but home

    Ok, well, if the Time Capsule was working with the Netgear router then it was running in bridged mode, which you need to change when you take out the Netgear router. Do this:
    1. Plug the ethernet cable from your Comcast box to the WAN port on your Time Capsule.
    2. Plug an ethernet cable from a LAN port on your Time Capsule to your computer.
    3. Run AirPort Utility, select your Time Capsule, and go to Manual Setup. Click on the Internet tab, and at the bottom change the Connection Sharing from Off (Bridge Mode) to Share a Public IP Address.
    After doing this you will want to reset your Comcast box as well so that your Time Capsule can acquire the correct IP address.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network       
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I changed cable providers and now my Airport Express won't connect to the Internet.  How do I fix this?

    I changed to Time Warner cable.  Upon doing so, my Airport Express lost its connection to the Internet.  When I run the Airport Utility, I am stuck at the first step, which says the AE doesn't have any DNS server addresses.  What are they and how do I find out what they should be?  And if I supply them, will that fix the problem?

    Have you performed a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Express?
    If not, the Express is still remembering the settings that you programmed into it when you configured it to work with your old modem.
    The Express is "looking" for your old modem, but it does not "see" 'it because it is no longer there...so it can't connect to the Internet.
    If you have not already tried the Factory Default Reset and you need more info about this, post back for more details.

    my iphone has been lost in my house and i need to find a way to track it and its offline. it wont connect to the internet so there isnt a way to use find my iphone. i just want to play a sound on it. is there any way i can get a app that connects my ipod from a laptop or a different way to find it.

    If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way.  Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

  • I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    Welcome!
    Only one variant of the PowerMac G4 could use the faster Airport Extreme Card. The rest used the original Airport card that is pretty slow.
    To get fast wireless without buying more than one thing, consider this:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Edimax/EW7722IN/
    It goes in an available PCI slot
    There are USB solutions also. However, all PowerMac G4 towers had only slower USB 1.1 ports, so any USB wireless adaptor can only run at about wireless 'B" speeds (slow) unless you also install a PCI USB 2.0 adaptor card. Doing that would allow a USB wireless adaptor to run at its maximum rated speed. These items working together would accomplish that:
    USB wireless "dongle:"
    Newer Technology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b USB Adapter + Plug and play direct or with extension cradle
    USB PCI adaptor:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=7069&Ntt=USB+PCI
    Each approach has its advantages. The PCI wireless card is a one-piece solution that takes up no desk space. The USB2 card+USB2 Dongle gives you more fast ports for transferring date from other external USB devices (primarily cameras and external hard drives) at hugely faster rates than can the original ports. I have a USB 2 PCI card in my G4 tower strictly for transferring images from my digital SLR camera in a timely manner.

  • My I-Touch Wont Connect To The Internet ! But My Bro's Did ! Help Please

    I just bought this friggin thing a few hours ago, cause my idiot brother talked me into getting it. He successfully connected his to the internet. I just paid $230.00 for an 8gb Ipod-touch, and a warranty, and it wont connect to the internet. I put in my network, and the password, but it's not going through. But my brothers works fine. Anybody know what i can do ?

    Yeah, they took down the post cause im not supposed to talk about it apparently. That was my brothers. His is working fine, he can go online, and do things, but for some reason i cant go on youtube, or safari, and cant connect to my main connection.
    I was thinking, maybe since there is two I-Touch's, maybe only one can be connected, but im not to sure about that.

  • I've just changed my router and whilst my laptops sync ok, my G4 tower which connects via an airport express doesn't connect to the internet. I think it's something to do with the IP or DHCP settings but have had no success, any help much appreciated.

    Hi Jake,
    Is it connecting to the Router or Modem?
    Is the new Router using maybe WPA2 encryption? If so, G4s can only do WPA or less.

    The Interface that connects to the Internet, needs to be drug to the top of System Preferences>Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations and checked ON.
    Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
    Then... Try putting these numbers in Network>Airport>TCP/IP>DNS Servers, for the Interface you connect with...
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    Then Apply.
    Also, turn off IPv6:

  • Can I use apple TV on home network with time capsule or Airport Xtreme without being connected to the internet?

    I'm wondering if I can use Apple TV to play movies and slide shows on my TV, play music over my sound system and print from my devices (Iphone 4S, iPad and MacBook pro 2011) by using an Airport Xtreme or Time Capsule (to back up the devices) if those devices are not connected to the internet. Can anyone advise pls? Reason for this is that I work on a moving ship and don't have an internet connection to speak of for much of the time (and if I do it's a wireless system that I need to pay by the minute and that is too slow to support the Apple TV), but would all the same like to create a wireless environment where my devices can interact with each other. I seem to get conficting info and a rep at the apple store in Honolulu told me that you cannot use Airport Xtreme or Time Capsule without an internet connection (it was busy, he may have misunderstood my question).
    Looking forward to your input.

    Don't try to home share it.. as that is dependent on using Apple ID.
    Just airplay to the ATV.. iTunes: Using AirPlay
    The movie should play exactly as your doing music.. but get rid of the whole home share if that is causing issues.. there is no mention of needing home share in the above..
    If you still have issues you might need to do it other ways.. like export the movie from itunes.. and play it using vlc which should allow you to stream it to the apple TV using airplay.
    That is a bit tricky and I have not used that setup but it should work.
    http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/23412/can-i-stream-any-video-played-wit h-vlc-player-to-apple-tv
    If you have a hunt around you should find it fairly easy to do.. but straight airplay should work.. there is a very recent update to ATV which might help it with airplay.
