Will the airport devices and time capsule work with telstras mobile hotspot (Sierra Wireless AirCard 753S Mobile Hotspot)??

will the airport devices and time capsule work with telstras mobile hotspot (Sierra Wireless AirCard® 753S Mobile Hotspot)??

Yes. There are 2 ways you could use these devices:
Wirelessly 'join' the network. This would be slower and doesn't offer extending functionality.
Use an Ethernet cable (through Powerline if you can't run a cable). This is faster and offers extending functionality. I would recommend using Bridge Mode if possible.

Will the latest 2 TB Time Capsule work with Windows 7

I purchased a latest 2 TB Time Capsule
My computer Engineer says, it will not work with my Windows 7 PC.
He says I should purchase a Mac computer for using it
My aim is to have some important files, movies and music files in it and use it as
my iPad accessory.
Kindly let me know

Your computer engineer needs demoting..
The TC is SMB compliant when setup properly.
Press reset 10sec and redo the setup.
Download and install airport utility for windows. That will also install bonjour which helps things along.
Rename the TC and wireless names to short, no spaces pure alphanumeric characters.
eg TC name.. TCgen4
2.4ghz wireless name.. TC24ghz
5ghz wireless name.. TC5ghz (set the 5ghz name different on the advanced wireless page).
Lock wireless to a/n - b/g
Lock wireless channels to 1, 6, or 11 as the only 3 non-overlapping channels.
On the disk page.. set the guest account to on with read and write permissions.. that makes life a bit easier. Obviously if security is a problem don't do it.. but TC is a home device.. and is so easy to hack into it is a joke.. so setting high security is seldom of value.
Make sure the workgroup is set correctly .. by default WORKGROUP.
Note the IP of the TC .. generally 10.0.1.1 and if it is running as the main router to the network, you can now open the TC via windows explorer by typing the ip or the TC name in the address bar thus.
\\TCgen4 or \\10.0.1.1 (Obviously if you use different name or IP then replace with those.)
To access the TC from ipad you need a file browser app.. just look it up.. the ipad does not actually natively work with the TC.. so ipad is actually more of an issue than windows.
Also note carefully .. there is no backup mechanism to save stuff on the TC.. it is a backup target not a NAS. It is made for Time Machine on a Mac not for storing files. They are also not exactly reliable. It is sealed.. there are no spare parts.. if it dies, apple will replace not fix it. And they tend to have a short life. If you trust your files to it.. one day they will all be gone.. make sure you back it up or only keep copies of files on it.

Will the wifi function of time capsule interfere with my existing router?

Will the wifi function of time capsule interfere with my existing home network via my Cisco router?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The routers will only interfere if they are working with the same channel. Time Capsule sets up automatically the channel, so you shouldn't have any problem with both routers

HT4262 My wifi network only works when I am in the same room as the time capsule. The airport relay and time capsule are showing green.

My wifi network is down in the entire house apart from the room where the base station is located. The Time Capsule and Airport Express are green lights. Any suggestions?

Looks like massive interference issues.
Are your walls made out of sheet-rock instead of drywall?
Also if that room is near a washroom or Kitchen, that would explain some things.

The AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule are the exact same thing apart from the ability to backup wirelessly, right?

The wifi speeds are the same, right?

A Time Capsule is an AirPort Extreme with a built in hard drive. Wireless speeds are the same.
You can backup to the Time Capsule using either a wired Ethernet connection or a wireless connectin.

Will the iPhone 5S and C be compatible with Wind mobile

i saw the us and canadian tech specs for the 5s and c and they are the same. since tmobile is selling the new iphones i am assuming they will work on wind mobile network in canada. can someone confirm

No. No one can confirm. Wind Mobile is NOT a supported carrier. There is no reason to believe that the upcoming 5C or 5S will be any more compatible with Wind Mobile than the current 5 is.

My Airport Extreme and Time Capsule both cannot do not mount my Seagate USB external hard.

My Airport Extreme and Time Capsule both cannot do not mount my Seagate USB external hard.
I am running OS 10.7.5
Both the TC and AE are updated to 7.6.1
The Seagate drive in formatted: Journaled HFS+
I tried everything on Apple's Article: HT1331 and the basic reboots and restarts.
"Next"

It sounds like you may be confusing "mount" with "recognize".
Connect the drive to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort Extreme icon, then click Edit
Click the Disks tab
Does the AirPort Extreme "recognize" your hard drive? If yes, it will be displayed in the window.
See example below of a WD 500 GB drive connected to the AirPort Extreme.
If your drive is formatted HFS+ and it does not appear here, then you will almost certainly need to use a powered USB hub with the hard drive.....even if the hard drive has its own power supply. The USB port on the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule is under powered.
Post back when the drive is "recognized" and we will next "mount" the drive.....although you likely already know how to do this.

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router.
1. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?
2. Can my printer USB be plugged in and then shared between the devices?
3. Can I create a network and how?
4. What happend when a visitor logs onto my existing wireless router?
I'm new to Macs (well a returning user having started with Mac Plus!!) and not very technical. Any help / advice will be much appreciated.
Ray

The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router. I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

Just installed a new time capsule and i want to use my airport express to extend my wireless range....time capsule working with existing devices at this time...but i am not able to get airport utility to recognize the airport express.....????

Temporarily connecting your AirPort Express to one of the Time Capsule's Etherent LAN <-> ports...as LaPastenagure suggests....is always a good way to setup and configure other network devices.
If you want to configure the Express using wireless, remember that the Express broadcasts a default wireless signal with a name like Apple Network xxxxxx. You must log on to this network first....no password is required....then open AirPort Utility to "see" the AirPort Express.

Best way to extend wireless via airport express and time capsule

best way to extend wireless via airport express and time capsule
i live in a two storey house where i use my airport express to create a wireless network in the main floor, and time capsule to extend it in the upper floor, where my room is. i have like 16 mbps in the main floor, and 2-3 mbps in the upper floor after having speediest.
i used time capsule in the upper floor because i use wireless backup daily and don't want to put internet down while i im doin it and consequently my parent can have internet access in the main floor, am i right? or do i have make just the opposite in order to have a good internet speed?
secondly, while checking airport express wireless mode on airport utility, there is like 4 different type of radio mode(802 11n bg comp, 802 11n 2.4, 802 11n a comp, 802 11n 5ghz) which i have no idea what they mean
what do you recommend?
we have like iphone4, iphone 3g, mbookpro, ipad, ipad 2, samsung tv and a sony vaio laptop in the wireless network
thank you

What you have would appear to be working but I can comment how I would redefine your setup. Note that both Airport Express and Time Capsule can function as wireless base stations so you do have wireless everywhere and at all times — using the Time Capsules for backups doesn’t mean your parents won’t have internet access regardless of the where the base stations are located.
You appear to have devices to connect to your network that use the 2.4 GHz band with 802.11g such as the iPhone 3G and perhaps the 5 GHz band with 802.11n such as likely the Macbook Pro if it’s a recent model. The iPhone 4 can use 5 GHz and 802.11n. Can’t comment on the Sony and Samsung but you can check their specs.
Now the Time Capsule (if it’s a recent version), can simultaneously supply 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band signals, but the Airport Express (if it’s recent) can only use one of those bands at one time. Likely the lowest common denominator for your devices is going to be the 2.4 GHz band since the devices that are capable of using 5 GHZ also support 2.4 GHz. If you don’t use 5 GHz, you won’t lose much in a two-storey home because likely it’s the 2.4 GHz band is better signal anyway because 5 GHz signals drop off quickly with several walls/floors to penetrate.
You also didn’t mention if the Airport Express is used to support a printer and/or AirPlay (using iTunes to play on remote speakers via the Airport Express connection) but that might also be a factor in the best location to place the Airport Express. Although the printer could be switched between the Time Capsule and the Airport Express if needed, only the Airport Express will support your remote speakers.
Recommend you use the Time Capsule as the Base station. When using Airport Utility to define the network, after you name your network, etc., select the Wireless tab, check the box “Allow this network to be extended” and set the Radio Mode to "802.11n (802.11b/g compatible)”.
Using the Airport Utility, click on the Airport Express; after you define the device and network name, select the Wireless tab, define the Wireless Mode as “Extend a Wireless Network” and check the box “Allow wireless clients”.
Hope that helps.

Time Machine, AirPort Utility, and Time Capsule broken in Mavericks?

Hi all, I’ve got a befuddling Time Machine/Time Capsule/Airport problem that I can’t seem to sort out.
On my pristine 2-day-old iMac (late 2013, running 10.9.1), I’m trying to set up Time Machine to back up to a new-ish 3TB Time Capsule. Initially it worked fine for the first backup, but subsequent backups failed because “backup disk could not be found.”
So I tried giving the TC a shorter name. The first backup under the new name worked a treat, but subsequent backups failed.
In Time Machine system pref pane, I deleted the Time Capsule, intending to try again with a new, even shorter name. But then when I went into AirPort Utility to change the Time Capsule name, it told me that “no configured AirPort base stations have been found.” I assumed that I was just deleting it as a choice on the backup disk list, but now I'm wondering, did the Time Machine pref actually delete the actual disk? In the AirPort Utility window, Time Capsule appears in the "other wi-fi" devices list, yet when I click it, it says "error reading settings."
Here are some other random details that may or may not pertain:
On the new iMac, I tried to mount the TC disk image, but Connect To Server reports that the connection fails because “the server may not exist or is unavailable.”
Although the Time Capsule shows up in the sidebar of the Finder window, “getting info” just produces the spinning wheel.
Although AirPort utility says that it can’t find the Time Capsule, the TC is nevertheless connecting to the internet just fine. All household devices are online, including iPhones and iPads.
On the old Mac Pro running 10.8, Time Capsule, Time Machine, and AirPort Utility all behave normally.
I thought I might try resetting the Time Capsule, but will this erase all the backups (from other computers around the house all running 10.8x without problems of any kind) that are on there? The other computer users will definitely squawk about that!
I hope this tirade makes some sense. Thanks for reading!

Rather than chop up your post I have taken the liberty to number the points.
1. When you deleted the TC in the airport utility you simply changed its ability to display the errant device. You did not actually delete anything on the TC itself.
Getting back a lost Airport.. more below.
2. Please give actual command you used.. and the name..
It is most important that you translate the name from Apple name to actual network name. That is why I constantly hammer on about using network names.. short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
So Fred Blog's Airport Time Capsule apart from being hopelessly wrong.
Is translated by Apple to the Network name.. Fred-Blogs-Airport-Time-Capsule (note.. no spaces and no special characters.. the apostrophe is deleted).
It can be much easier to just use IP address.. if the TC is the main router.. then it will hold a constant IP.. by default 10.0.1.1
So mount the TC as AFP://10.0.1.1
3. That is standard.. it is a network device and will not show info. Same on any computer in your network.. same on any OS.
4. Yes, that is standard.. the location of the hard disk is lost.. but the internet is still working.. This is the bug that has been around since Lion and is still growing worse with each revision.
5. Again standard. the issue is on the computer or the interaction of the two.. computer and TC.. yet other computers are unaffected.
6. Reset of the TC is fine.. no reset, soft hard or factory will ever delete the hard disk files.
But if you change the name of the TC, you will need to go around to all the computers and setup TM again to point to the right target.. none of the backups are lost.. you just need to tell TM where they got to.
Manual setup of the lost TC.
In Airport utility go to the top menu, open configure other.. and type in the IP address of the TC that got lost.
no password needed unless you set something .. if it doesn't work the default is public

How do I connect Airport Extreme and Time Capsule to my new iMac so that AE is used for network and TC only used for Time Machine backup?

I didn't realize that Time Capsule will only support the print function of a wireless multifunction printer. So I want to use Extreme for my network to have full use of my printer and use TC as the Time machine backup only. How to I make the connections?

Thanks for your response and this is getting complicated but I just purchased a new iMac as well as the Airport TC. I've had the Airport Extreme for a year or so. The Airport Extreme worked perfectly with my old iMac wirelessly and I had all functions of my printer with no problems. I was expecting the same with the TC. But the instruction that came with TC say to connect the printer to the TC via USB...which I did. And the print function worked perfectly but nothing else. In researching I discovered that when wired that way the TC only supports the print function...not scan or fax or anything else. I tried going wireless since my AE worked perfectly via wireless but I got no printer functions at all that way. But I'm wondering also if I tried that during a time I was having other issues...I had to delete and re-add my printer which solved some other problems. I may try that again...and see if I can get all print functions with just the TC connected
As far as connecting both your AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule on your network, we're not clear on exactly how you want to do this. Will the AirPort Extreme connect to your modem using an Ethernet cable and the Time Capsule connect to the AirPort Extreme using an Ethernet cable?.......or......do you want the Time Capsule to connect to the network using wireless?
Well... first of all I would like not to have to use the AE at all...I would prefer using just my TC for network, all print functions and Time Machine backup if that's possible. My printer will not accept Ethernet connections (Canon MX512).
After failing at getting this to work, I decided I would try to use my AE for net and print functions and just use my TC for Time Machine backup. I tried several different connection configurations with no success until finally I connected cable modem to my AE via Ethernet and went wireless with the AE and printer. but connected the AE to the TC via Ethernet and amazingly everything worked like a charm (for a while) and I was patting myself on the back for being so smart. But now I find that the connection only lasts for a short time. If I leave it for a while the TC goes invisible...or at least I see a message saying the Ethernet is unplugged...but it is not... and I lose internet connection even though I have a green light on my AE. So now I'm at a loss. I don't know why I keep losing network signal and why my system thinks the Ethernet is unplugged.
So... after all this...I figured I wasn't so smart after all and I must have things wired incorrectly.
So... it sounds like you are saying I should go back and try again to get my new TC to work as I want it to via wireless instead of connecting via USB...is that correct? Could you tell me exactly how I should wire my equipment from cable modem to AE and/or TC to achieve net capability, full functions of my printer and Time Machine backup...
Thanks...

Do Airport Extreem and Time Capsule support connect restrictions?

I've looked over the manuals for Airport Extreem and Time Capsule and can't see if (or how) these devices support connect restrictions such as:
1) Prevent certain devices from connecting (i.e. via MAC address)
2) Allow/Prevent access at specific times of the day.
Do these devices provide these types of services?
Thanks
-Mike

1) Prevent certain devices from connecting (i.e. via MAC address)
Yes, but only for wireless devices.
2) Allow/Prevent access at specific times of the day.
Yes, but only for wireless devices. You can set up rules for each day of the week if you want. The example below shows Weekdays and Weekends

Cisco router RVS4000 with Airport extrem and Time capsule.

Problem droping connection to internet when is Time capsule in extended wifi mode. When I turn off wifi on time capsule Airport extreme work fine.
Airport extreme and Time capsule is conected via ETH.
Any idea ?
Thaks
B.

If you use ethernet to connect the AE and TC .. you must NOT extend wifi.. you use Create a wireless network. And setup with same name and security. You are using roaming network.. not extended wireless.. if you want to use extended wireless no ethernet

Will an older "Time Capsule" work with Mountain Lion?

will an older "Time Capsule" work with Mountain Lion?

It should do. Depends on how you define an 'older' TC. As long as your SW is up to date and the TC has relatively recent Firmware etc then there shouldn't be an issue.
Are you having a problem with yours or just curious before you upgrade the OS?
