New time capsule stops working with http connections

I have the latest 2TB Time Capsule. I've been getting a weird issue where my I can no longer can do http connections (i.e. browse the internet) but I can still use other internet capable services like Skype or Steam. It seems that traffic through port 80 just seems to stop working. All of my devices on my network experience the issue. I have even exchanged Time Capsules but the issue still presists.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Here's a traceroute when things work:

HT1695 My new iPad with Retina Display is not able to connect to the Wi-Fi of my new Time Capsule. It used to connect, but now it just spins and spins and never connects. I've tried rebooting everything many times.

My new iPad with Retina Display is not able to connect to the Wi-Fi of my new Time Capsule. It use to connect, but now it just spins and spins and never connects. I've tried rebooting everything many times.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Thinking of purchasing an Apple Time Capsule to work with my new iMac. I only want it for general family use. Any comments?

Thinking of purchasing an Apple Time Capsule to work with my new iMac. I only want it for general family use. Any comments?

It should work just fine. You can see user reviews on Apple's web site, here is the URL:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD032LL/A/Time-Capsule-2TB?fnode=MTY1NDA0Mg

What is the best way to get a time capsule to work with a new network name?

What is the best way to get a time capsule to work with a new network name?

Well it seems that you did not explain to us the full story. Did you change ISP's or something? Why would it not show up anymore?
What colour is the light on the time-capsule? If it's blinking amber, then you probably need to do a factory-reset. That should get it to show up again in AirPort Utility.

My Time Capsule stopped working suddenly. The led won't lit up even if I do a hard reset.

Suddenly I noticed that my Time Capsule stopped working. The led doesn't light up any more and there's no noticeable activity in it.
Is it possible to recover my backups?

Dead TC power supply syndrome is standard on all Gen1 and Gen2 TC.
It has plenty of info on the web.
https://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modem s/apple-time-capsule-repair
As far as HD is concerned it will mostly be ok. Either fix or remove the TC hard drive and use in USB box, as mentioned.
If it is Gen3 there is a different problem.
Tell us the actual model number from the rubber base.

Why won't time capsule wont work with Lion?

My Time capsule stopped working I installed Lion
I get one of two error messages:
The backup disk image “/Volumes/Brian Dunk's AirPort wirel/Brian Dunk’s iMac (2).sparsebundle” could not be accessed (error -1).
Or
Cannot complete backup error 6584
Any ideas welcomed

My time capsule stopped working. amber light comes on for a few seconds then turns off.

my time capsule stopped working. When I try to power it up the amber light comes on for about 10 seconds and then turns off. That's as far as it gets. Any ideas on how to solve this problem.

Kazandjaz, Welcome to the fourm! There is a 99.5% chance that your problem is caused by a failed internal power supply unit (PSU)! If you have operated it for about 18 months or so, that is the cause. Take it to your nearest Apple dealer and ask them to check it out.

Time capsule doesnt work with telia bredband no wifi

Time capsule doesnt work with telia bredband no wifi. Time capsule and its wifi worked in the beginning, but now it doesnt. I have tried everything without success.

There is no question.. so if it is a statement of resignation.. then if under warranty and faulty Apple will fix it/replace it.. if not dead you will be given it back.
Are you using Lion? If so did you download 5.6 airport utility?
Plug the TC into a computer by ethernet.. hold in reset for 10sec.. and then redo the setup.
Give TC and wireless short names and no spaces and no special characters.. lock the wireless to manual a/n-b/g and fix the channels.
Then if it doesn't work most likely faulty. Otherwise it is just setup is wrong.

Time Capsule not work with appletalk printers connected via ethernet?

I have seen no definitive answers to this problem posted here or on support forum. Some have suggested (but Apple refuses to confirm) that Time Capsule does not support AppleTalk devices (particularly printers) connected via Ethernet to Time Capsule. Even the "Genius Bar" guys can't tell you for sure, but this is what they suspect also.
I am a 25 year Macintosh user. I have conducted numerous experiments on this problem. What follows is my analysis and work around.
I have found no way to connect AppleTalk printers to Time Capsule by an Ethernet network connected to the back of the Time Capsule. It just doesn't work. Forget all the posts about what to try. Especially forget about resetting your printer settings. Waste of time. This leads me to conclude that those who suspect that Time Capsule does not support AppleTalk printers connected on an Ethernet network are absolutely correct. It is a hardware or software deficiency. I do not know why Apple won't just publish this in their technical specs. It would save us users a lot of time and frustration.
Now the work around. The only thing that I have found that will work is to set up an Airport Extreme to extend the wireless network created with the Time Capsule. Plug your ethernet network into the Airport Extreme, NOT into the Time Capsule. I presume (but have not tested) that this works with an Airport Express as well. I did this with my old Airport Extreme that I had left over after buying my new Time Capsule. Now the printers show up again and print fine.
Please let me know what your results are if you try this.

The problem is caused by an interaction between the Airport Extreme Update 2008-004 and the TC 7.3 firmware. I swapped out my TC for my AirPort Extreme (which sat on a shelf unused since I bought the TC). It has version 6.xx of the firmware. Immediately I could see my printer when I wirelessly connect with my MBPro and can print from it. I put the TC back and then did an Archive and Install of 7.5 on my MBPro. I did every software update except the Airport Extreme Update 2008-004. I could see my printer and print to it! After cloning my HD, I then applied the 2008-004 update to 7.5.5. That broke the wireless printing again! I tried TC firmware 7.3, 7.3.1, and 7.3.2 but not go. It is clear that my computer is trying to communicate with the printer (lots of flashing lights on my LAN switch) but no successful handshaking. I restored my hard drive from the clone and I now I can print again. Final word: if you want to print from a wireless computer connection to an AppleTalk printer connected to TC's LAN do not apply the 2008-004 update to your computer. Apple: please fix this problem.

Time Capsule Stopped Working Without Warning

I purchased my iMac & Time Capsule (802.11n) back in 2006. Last Wednesday (17 Mar 2010) evening, and without any type of warning, the capsule stopped working. The little green light went out and I have not been able to get it running since. My DSL connection runs through the capsule to the computer. Thus, I have not been able to go online. I'm a family history researcher and I need my Mac for email, research, and family websites. I might also add that I'm NOT a computer nerd; I'm just an older lady with basic computer knowledge, and I need it to work.
I've had to dust off my old unreliable windows based pc, set it all up again, download updates to the Ya-Ya, set up another email addy ([email protected]) - just to be able to get online to find out what I can or should do with this problem.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks! TJ

I also had a TC fail. However, I did the mod with the fan to keep it cool (http://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modems /apple-time-capsule-repair/apple-time-capsule-fan-mod), and then it failed a month later.
I changed the capacitors on the powersupply board of the TC with instructions from: http://sites.google.com/site/lapastenague/a-deconstruction-of-routers-and-modems /apple-time-capsule-repair/apple-time-capsule-repair-type2
Now it is back up and running, will see how long it lasts.
BTW I went to MacMall in Santa Monica, CA and I was told since I did the fan mod, I lost any chance at a warranty repair/exchange.
My advice: try and get a new one from Apple before you do anything, and do not do the fan mod, it does not completely prevent the failure.... and then one is out of luck with regards to Applecare. Apparently, you can attach the TC to any Applecare/warranty that you have for an Apple CPU. So, if you are under warranty with any CPU, the age of the TC is not an issue (according to my readings).
Good luck....

Wireless connection between D-Link WiFi router and Time capsule stopped working

We have an ISP provided D-Link wireless router (DIR-615) to which we wirelessly connected our 2Tb Time Capsule for back up and to connect a USB printer to out network. This worked perfectly for 3 1/2 years, until about a month ago, when the time capsule suddenly decided to go "off line". ie we could no longer access it or the printer via our wireless network. We had changed nothing - just one day it stopped working.
We tried to get it back online with no success. As the 2Tb Time Capsule was almost 7 years old and had had some HDD issues in the passed, we figured it had got old and died and that it was time to replace it; so we bought a new 3Tb Time Capsule, thinking this would get everything back to normal.
However much as we tried, we were also unable to get the new 3Tb Time Capsule to connect wirelessly to the D-Link wireless router. The Airport Utility did not show the D-Link wireless router or its wireless network, although we were (and are) able to see it in Systems Preferences>Networks from all our multiple devises. This in itself seemed odd. No matter what we tried, the Airport Utility would not find the D-Link wireless router and hence we could not add the 3Tb Time Capsule to the existing wireless network.
At the end of the day we got fed up with trying to add the 3Tb Time Capsule to the D-Link wireless network, and connected it via a LAN cable to the D-Link router instead. We then set it up as its own network. Worked gerat. Having done that we thought maybe the old 2Tb Time Capsule might not have been the problem after all, so we tried extending our new 3Tb Time Capsule wireless network using the 2Tb Time Capsule wirelessly. This worked perfectly! And we are now almost back to what we wanted.
So although we have a work around, this means now have 2 separate wireless networks as opposed to the original single wireless network where everything talked to everything else.
Can anyone shed any light on any of the following:-
1. Why the original wireless network connection between the D-Link router and the 2Tb Time Capsule just stopped working? Was there some software change from Apple that "decided" D-Link wireless routers were no longer secure; and therefore the TCs could no longer connect to them?
2. Why it was not possible to extend the existing D-Link wireless network using the the new 3Tb Time Capsule?
3. Is there is anyway that we can get back to a single wireless network based around the D-Link wireless router as the primary router connecting to the modem, where the 2 Time Capsules connect as "wireless satellite base stations"?

1. Why the original wireless network connection between the D-Link router and the 2Tb Time Capsule just stopped working? Was there some software change from Apple that "decided" D-Link wireless routers were no longer secure; and therefore the TCs could no longer connect to them?
A firmware update to the TC came along and you agreed to it without perhaps even noticing.. it then smashed your setup because Apple do not recommend the setup you were using and it is very poor.
2. Why it was not possible to extend the existing D-Link wireless network using the the new 3Tb Time Capsule?
Because it is such a poor setup that Apple have taken away your ability to choose it unless you know exactly what you are doing.
3. Is there is anyway that we can get back to a single wireless network based around the D-Link wireless router as the primary router connecting to the modem, where the 2 Time Capsules connect as "wireless satellite base stations"?
Yes, this I can help you with.
I have several ways around the problem.. but the first one is.. why use the DIR-615 at all.. it is not a modem.. it is a very ordinary bottom end, poor single band slow wireless router.
Why don't you simply remove the DIR-615 from the network completely.. plug whatever it is the ISP supplies you.. an ethernet connection from whatever that modem is you mentioned into the WAN port of the Time Capsule. And use the TC in some router mode.. same as the DIR-615 was setup.. dhcp or pppoe or whatever.. I doubt the TC cannot match it.
If you have issues please post a few screenshots from the DIR-615 to show how it is setup from the WAN side.. and as long as you are given the username and password or whatever the ISP uses to authenticate then chuck out the DIR-615.
Tell me if that is a goer.. if not we can work out a few other methods..
eg. Simply turn off the wireless in the DIR-615. It is poor cf the TC and there is no need for it.. with the TC in bridge only use the TC for wireless as well as wireless extend with your old TC.
Or setup roaming network where everything uses the same SSID.
Then you will have one wireless network. And it won't matter what as long as it connects.. although IMHO this is not right as the TC is such a superior router now you are wasting your new TC.

HT1175 3TB time capsule not working with new iMac

I have a 3TB time capsule that's c. 2 years old. It worked perfectly with my old iMac. I bought a new 27" one when it came out this year and since the time capsule will not work.
I had to clear all the data as a starter. Now it gets a little into the backup taking c. 1 day then resets. It's connected via ethernet cable and has been told to join an existing network.
Currently it says it's backing up 922,498 items, after 2 hours (this is the third attempt, it resets then has no record of the old backup) it says 10kb of 789.44 GB - About 4,664,440 days remaining!!
To clarify I'm trying to use Time Machine with the Time Capsule.
Please help!!

You have made a mistake in the setup.
You do not "Join an existing networking" and use ethernet.. they are mutually exclusive.
What you are doing is backing up over double hop wireless which is slowing to a crawl.
You need to put the TC into bridge mode.. and plug it into the main router by ethernet. Then use wiretess to the TC if you are too far away or ethernet if you are close by..
As soon as you put the TC into join a wireless network it deactivates the ethernet.

Time Capsule not working with new modem

I have been using my TC with our motorola modem for 2.5 years. On Friday last week, the modem crapped the bed and AT&T sent us a new modem, a netgear. The modem is working fine; when I connect the ethernet cable directly to my laptop the internet work perfectly, however when I try to get the wireless network going through my TC, there is no connection. All the lights on the modem work fine and every time I try to work with the TC, it says that it is working fine as well. It seems like something is not communicating between the modem and the TC.
I've tried restarting both machines numerous times, I've checked and rechecked the WEP password, the IP addresses are fine, and I'm still lost
The modem works. Time Capsule Works. I don't get it!

The new netgear is probably a modem router whereas the old Motorola was pure modem.. not sure but possible.
Reset the TC and set it to bridge modem.. plug into the netgear modem router.. and it should work fine.
If the new netgear is in fact a pure modem.. you need to turn it off and put the TC in place.. wait up to 15min for the ISP to renew the lease on the MAC address then turn on the cable modem.. wait then turn on the TC. But this is not necessary if it is a router.
What is the model number of the netgear so I can check this.. ?

Why Time Machine stopped working with Time Capsule?

I have my Time Capsule connected via Ethernet to my iMac and wirelessly to my MacBook. Several days ago I got a warning on the iMac saying "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup - an error occured while copying - may be temporary - if persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disc."
Well, first Tim Capsule will not appear in Disk Utility, so that instruction is absurd. I went to Airport Utility but all that appears there is a graphic of T.C. with no buttons to do anything. My Mac consultant, who doesn't use Time Capsule or T.M, told me to hook it up using USB instead of Ethernet and it would appear in Disk Utility. Before I try that, does it make sense? He also suggested trying it wirelesslessly if that doesn't work.
Incidently, during all this time the T.C. wireless backups of the MacBook have continued unabated.
One forum participant urged me to take the T.C. to Apple to get it fixed. I don't think the drive is in that bad shape or why would the MacBook backups to its partition continue without problem?
I cleaned the Ethernet cable, unplugged both ends and plugged back in. T.M. indicated it had backed up twice, but now it has displayed exactly the same warning again, and says the last backup was several days ago. What should I do? I've zapped the Pram, run permissions on the iMac HD, and deleted all the browers' cache files.

My Mac consultant, who doesn't use Time Capsule or T.M, told me to hook it up using USB instead of Ethernet and it would appear in Disk Utility. Before I try that, does it make sense?
Ah, no. The TC's USB port cannot be used for that purpose.
I recommend another Mac consultant - Apple Support Communities contributor Pondini. Start with this: http://pondini.org/TM/C3.html
There are a variety of possible causes for that message, so exhaust all the potential remedies.

New Air Port Time Capsule Not Working With Old Airport Express

I have been running a home network comprised of a Air Port Time Capsule (A1254) and 5 ea Air Port Express (A1264) for several years with no problem.
The Air Port Time Capsule (A1254) died and I replaced it with an Air Port Time (A1470). Now none of the Air Port Express (A1264) work, all flashing yellow. All other network functions seem to work okay, Time Capsule Backup, Apple TV, Internet …
I am using AirPortUtility 6.3.1 for setup but do not see any way to setup the Air Port Express.

Reset the Express to factory and start over.. they should work.. are you using all 5 in extend wireless mode?
When you reset the Express click on the wifi icon in the top menu area.. and the newly reset AEx will appear in the list.. click it and Airport utility will open and attempt to automagically connect it to the TC.
