Xbox Time Capsule ethernet moderate NAT

I am using DSL, 6 mbps
Time Capsule with latest firmware
ethernet cable to Xbox 360
Xbox network test shows that I am running a moderate NAT. Experiencing significant lag.
How can I get the NAT to be open?

Update: I have purchased a Linksys N-Gaming adapter, and it has enabled me to connect to the Time Capsule wirelessly.
I still haven't been able to change the NAT settings on TC in order to get an open NAT with the Xbox Live connection.

  • Very slow transfer to Time Capsule (Ethernet)

    I am trying to transfer 80 gb to my Time Capsule (Ethernet) but transfer is very slow (100 kb/s). How can I fix it?

    Plug the TC into the Computer by ethernet and make sure the computer shows the link is running at gigabit.. if not replace the cable.
    Turn off wireless.. there should be only one data path.. ethernet.
    Turn IPv6 to link local only in the computer network setup for ethernet.

  • Time capsule IP settings / NAT / DHCP / questions

    I'm trying to set up a Time Capsule in my apartment, to use as a wireless router with several apple computers. I've been using an Airport Express in the past. I'm having problems setting up the computers to get individual IP addresses, not in conflict with each other, while still receiving the Internet signal.
    My DSL comes with a stable IP address which I have assigned to the Capsule, along with associated subnet mask, router address (the router in the building from the service provider, which is working fine), and DNS server addresses.
    Trouble is, if I set my capsule to assign IPs through DHCP or share a signal IP, it shows blinking amber on reboot. Strangely, as a bridge, with one computer assigned the same IP I'm able to get the internet, but if I want to use more than one computer, I get an error message about IP duplication. I'm also wondering about double NAT (which I'm not as familiar with). ANother question is whether to plug into the WAN or LAN port. The airport setup seems to want me to use the WAN port (and says that no ethernet plugged in there is a problem). Is it?
    Finally, I was wondering if I can use my old airport express to extend my range and/or network a second printer in the other room. Do the two routers need to be connected by an ethernet cable? Can the airport express be remotely set up to use the same network the Time Capsule is plugged into from the wall?
    Many thanks for anybody's help with this.

    The airport setup seems to want me to use the WAN port (and says that no ethernet plugged in there is a problem). Is it?
    Yes you want the DSL modem plugged into the WAN port.
    Does your DSL require PPPoE? If so, after configuring the Time Capsule to get a connection using PPPoE... ensure that you DISABLE PPPoE on each of your computers. Only one device should be handling PPPoE.
    Finally, I was wondering if I can use my old airport express to extend my range and/or network a second printer in the other room.
    Yes as long as you configure the Time Capsule to work in an 802.11g compatible mode AND you configure both the Time Capsule and AirPort Express (AX) to wirelessly connect using WDS.
    Do the two routers need to be connected by an ethernet cable?
    No

  • Time capsule ethernet not working

    For some reason, all of a sudden my ethernet is not working on my time capsule. My wireless is running fine, but my xbox and tv box are not getting any connection. This does not make any sense to me.
    Does anyone know what may cause such an issue?

    If you restart the TC does it work again?
    Check the connectivity leds on both ends if possible.. certainly each port on the TC has small, micro small LED.. is it green when you are plugged in??
    You will need to connect a computer and attempt to ping the TC.. see if it passes packets.
    How old is the TC? The model number from the rubber foot please.. A1xxx
    And also if you can check the log from a computer if there are any issues.

  • Time capsule ethernet transfer slow

    I have a new 3 tb time capsule.  I have used it to back up my mac before doing a fresh install.  I also transfered my large 250gb iphoto library via ethernet cable to the time capsule in a seperate folder.  When I completed the new install of mountain lion I used migration assistant to transfer the base data and then individually transfered documents and sub folders with minial fuss. 50 gb taking 1hr.  I am now trying to transfer the iphoto library and it is giving me a 7-22 days transfer time.  This makes no sense, please advise.

    Time estimates are displayed using the current connection rate.
    It is normal for the backup to start quite slowly as it tries to analyze all of the data to be backed up or transferred,  and then speed up significantly for the bulk of the transfer and then slow down a bit toward the end of the backup.

  • New Time Capsule Ethernet operating at 100mbps

    Hi,
    A collegue of mine just bought a new time capsule for our office (3TB one) which features '3 gigabit ethernet ports'. I have my Macbook Pro plugged into a Belkin Thunderbolt Dock and the ethernet from that to the TC (the ethernet socket in dock is gigabit). When doing this I only get 100mbps, but if I take the ethernet cable plugged into the WAN port of the TC and put it into my dock I get 1 Gigabit connection through my thunderbolt dock.
    Clearly it is the TC limiting the link speed, and at the moment it is better to operate on wifi with a link speed of 450mbps. My question is what do I have to configure on the time capsule to allow the ethernet ports to give a 1 Gigabit link speed.
    Help is appreciated!
    Regards,
    Jayden

    Two TCs here both check in at Gigabit Ethernet on all of the LAN ports, so you might want to take the TC to an Apple Store or Apple Servicer if you have one near you to let them take a look.
    There are no port settings or adjustments in AirPort Utility 6.x to make changes to the Ethernet ports.

  • Time capsule ethernet setup

    I have a time capsule that I am trying to use as a time machine with an ethernet connection to my iMac 27 late 2012. The time machine setup doesn't seem to recognize the time capsule. What am I doing wrong?

    the router mode is greyed out.
    It is in bridge so that doesn't matter.
    I can't turn off the wreless on my mac, as it provides access to the internet
    No, if you turn off wireless then you access internet and both TC by ethernet.. there is no need for wireless.
    If you want to use your old TC in complete network isolation you can do that.
    You need to reset it to router mode.. and it will have no other connection than to the imac.. you are creating a secondary network.
    The info is in the post here.. near the bottom with all the screen shots for the setup.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4817218?tstart=30
    I would load 5.6 utilty onto your computer as it does manual setup better with the old TC.
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall 6.1 (now 6.2 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.
    For screen shots see this post.

  • Backup - time capsule - ethernet - won't connect

    I left my time capsule unconnected for a period of time, over a week anyway. I commenced a backup - unsurprisingly, using wireless it was taking a very long time.
    I wanted to speed it up. I connected ethernet cable to ethernet ports in Macbook and Time Capsule. However, it won't connect. It says 'back up disk not available'.
    I have looked around discussion topics and can't see a solution.
    Anyone experience something similar or able to advise? Many thanks

    I managed to work it out. You have to disable the wireless operation of the Time Capsule before you can get an ethernet connection to work. Wrongly assumed they might just operate as alternatives.
    SO all sorted now ...

  • Speed limitation on Time Capsule Ethernet WAN port

    I have a Time Capsule 2TB model A1409 that is connected to a Motorola Cable Modem SBV5121 and only connects to it ("green light") when the Ethernet WAN port is set to 10 Mbps/Half Duplex (fastest speed - average 5 Mbps for download) or 10 Mbps/Full Duplex (slowest speed - average 3 Mbps for download). No other mode can get a connection "green light". Time capsule software is 7.6.1.
    Today I connected a Cisco Linksys E2500 router to the same cable modem and download speed increased to 10 Mbps which is what I am paying for my ISP. I haven't even touched the ethernet WAN port configuration. Straight forward.
    I would be grateful if someone could point out a configuration change that would allow my TC to connect as fast as this Cisco router.

    It works fine in Bridge Mode with a Thomson Integrated Modem/Router. But I don't want to use this configuration since I won't be able to use the TC's Guest Network.
    Just tried connecting with Cisco's ethernet cable but remained the same.
    Is it possible to bridge the Thomson??
    Stick a small cheapo switch between the TC and Morotola and see if that fixes it.. as I said, not all chips quite talk to each other.. even in this day and age.
    And Motorola cable modems seem to have more problems than most .. this is not new to me.

  • Time Capsule Ethernet Help

    Hi
    I'm trying to set up a Time Capsule to connect to the router via Ethernet and let me do my initial backup through Ethernet to my computer and then be able to do wireless backups after that. And I will be able to connect to the internet wirelessly.
    Now my problem is Everybody tells me that if I plug my router(NETGEAR) into my Time Capsules WAN port via Ethernet and set it up to extend the network that It would work. But When I plug it into the WAN port and choose that option it gives me a list of available devices(routers) that are connected via ethernet. My router is not there. All I see is "Previous Time Capsule Config".
    Now what? No matter what I do I can get it to pick up my router via ethernet.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You need to bridge the Time Capsule.
    Go to the top menu Internet and select connect using ethernet and then below that, connection sharing.. choose bridge mode.
    Now it doesn't matter what port the TC is plugged into the main router. And wireless can be setup as you like.. but you are not extending the wireless. You are using it as a simple AP.
    Does the Netgear have wireless? If so you can use manual channel setup in the TC .. just use a different channel to the Netgear.

  • Time capsule, PS3 in NAT type 3

    Hi Everyone,
    I understand this has been asked many times on many forums, so my apologies here.
    I have a BT Home Hub 2.0 (wireless disabled) as my modem, hooked up to my time capsule which is acting as the router (WIFI). I have my PS3 connected wirelessly to the network configured with my Time Capsule.
    Playing GT5, i cant seem to get my PS3 off NAT type 3.
    Can anybody please advise me on how to solve this??
    Many thanks!

    I have a BT Home Hub 2.0 (wireless disabled)
    Even through you disabled the wireless function, the Home Hub is very likely still providing NAT services for the entire network.
    my time capsule which is acting as the router (WIFI
    If you have the Time Capsule configured as a router...as you say....then it is also providing NAT services.
    You may have an error known as Double NAT on your network. To check and see if that might be the case....
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click directly on the word Status (2nd line on the summary page)
    Are there any messages there about NAT?

  • Best for ADSL modem or Time Capsule to do NAT?

    I'm hoping to pick up a Time Capsule in the very near future (like tonight if they have the new ones in) and wanted to ask a general question about set-up.
    I have a ADSL router/modem which will be connected to the Time Capsule. Is there a general rule as to whether it best to let the Time Capsule or the ADSL modem/router do the NAT etc.? My hunch is that for maximum chance of everything working nicely, such as "Back to my Mac", it would be best to use the modem to do as little as possible and get the Time Capsule to do as much as possible (NAT, firewall etc.).
    Any comments?

    Start with this and do some exploring if you are interested. http://www.dlink.com.au/
    You'll need to find the model number of your modem and there may be another number that's usually on a label on the bottom of the product that you may need as well.
    Look for the instructions to reset the modem back to factory defaults. There will be a default user name like "admin" and a default password which you can change when you get into the setup of the modem.
    This link may help as well. http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/?tag=DSLmodemS1008
    10.1.1.1 is indeed one of the addresses for D-Link, but there are others like a 192.168.xxx.xxx type of number. To set up the modem, you will hook it up directly to your computer.

  • Time Capsule/Ethernet Connectivity

    Got a bit of a dilemma with my Time Capsule as of yesterday.
    It's a August 2009 model, 1 TB, always running so there is no doubt that there are many hours on it.
    On the modem; the power, dsl, and internet lights are on (and the ethernet light when directly plugged into my MacBook Pro.
    I have reset the Time Capsule (a hard reset) by using the reset button on the rear and holding until the orange light flashes fast.
    AirPort Utility does not receive signal from Time Capsule, but green light next to "Internet" is on when directly connected to the modem via ethernet cable.
    Tried switching ethernet cables used between modem and Time Capsule with no success. All units off/on off/on off/on, phone cable removed from wall and plugged back in, all to no avail.
    Time Capsule makes an assortment of sounds, at the moment it is making a repetitive hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss, with a ticking noise coming from around the ethernet port (like a clock ticking).
    Recently, within the last month, a message about not being able to back up has surfaced repetititvely and I ignored it because I don't keep important files on this computer. (I only use the Time Capsule as a router, really)
    Usually after playing around with it all for a while it comes back, but I've been messing with it for a few hours now.
    Hopefully someone knows the trick to get all of this back up and running, as it always worked almost perfectly until yesterday.

    The TC has gone past its useby date.. the sounds it is making all point to a dead power supply.. this was common problem with Gen1 and Gen2.
    Either fix or replace it. Nowadays replace is more economic unless you want to DIY.

  • Time Capsule with Double NAT status - Question.

    Hi all.. would appreciate some advice.
    I have a Time capsule set to DHCP/NAT.
    I have a second Airport extreme connected to TC via eithernet (about 100 yards away) set to Bridge to further my signal on a big property.
    I have several Aiport Expresses for Airplay only.
    I recently called Apple and they told me to set my TC to DHCP/NAT and chose ignore.
    I had problems with my computers connecting to the internet (they connected to my network, but not internet.  Or occasionally I would get errors on my MBP that said could not connect this IP address is used by another device).  It was sporatic.  Apple told me this was likely because I have 20-30 wifi devices in my house and my ISP is not providing enough IP addresses.  They told me that DHCP/NAT makes my TC 'be in charge' of these IP addresses.
    I am using Frontier service.  Modem from Frontier is Netgear B90 - 755044 - 15.
    When I set up this modem, I turned the wifi portion off.  And currently the wireless light on the modem doesn't ever blink, so I believe it is off.
    So why am I getting the Double NAT error since my Modem appears to have the wifi portion turned off?
    Thank you very much!

    Thanks again Bob!
    I called Frontier... they refused to show me how to put my modem/router in Bridge mode.  Hypothentically, if I did that, would that solve this problem?  Sounds like it would.  They said they won't show me how to do it because they use PPPoE or something and if I put into bridge mode I won't get internet access.  Is that true?  They only use bridge mode for businesse they said.
    I never wanted a modem/router.... I wish I only had a modem! .  Maybe I will call them back and ask only for a modem.  Good idea.
    Attaching a screen shots below.
    If I go into My connection at the top, hit Edit.... no where in there is a bridge option.
    If I go to that green Enabled one under VC's... where it says PPPoE, there is a selection to choose Bridge.
    See below.
    But I'm too chicken and I don't know if that is the answer or not.
    Thougths?
    Thanks again Bob!

  • Time Capsule ethernet connection drops when backup on Windows XP

    Hi,
    I have my Time Capsule connected with ethernet cable to my computer (Windows XP Pro SP3) everything works just fine until I start a backup from the PC.
    The disk is connected to my PC as a network drive and I use the softare Cobian for the backup.
    The connection drops after few minutes (not even 12G) of backup and I then can't access to the Time Capsule or internet...nothing works anymore.
    After a reboot I can access to the Time Capsule again.
