Read this guide to get started. Time Capsule offers you the simplicity of fully automated backup for your Wi-Fi network. Using the Time Machine application in Mac OS X v10.5.7 Leopard or later, it’s easy and automatic to back up all the computers on your network to a single Time Capsule. The Time Capsule is also a fully featured AirPort Extreme Base Station that provides simultaneous dual-band wireless networking. When you set up your Time Capsule, it creates two high-speed Wi-Fi networks: ÂA 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) network for 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n devices, such as iPhone, iPod touch, and older computers ÂA 5 GHz network for 802.11n and 802.11a devices, such as newer computers, iPad, and Apple TV Wireless devices join the network that provides them the best performance and compatibility, and the Time Capsule shares your broadband Internet connection with computers and devices on your network. 6 Chapter 1 Getting Started With your Time Capsule, you can: ÂUse the Time Machine application in Mac OS X v10.5.7 (or later) to back up all the computers on your wireless network, as well as computers connected to your Time Capsule using Ethernet. Note: Your first backup with Time Capsule and Time Machine could take overnight or longer, depending on how much data you’re backing up. To speed up the initial backup, use an Ethernet cable to connect your computer to the LAN port on your Time Capsule. For more information about using Time Machine, see “Using Time Machine with Your Time Capsule” on page 24. ÂCreate a password-protected wireless home network, and then connect to the Internet and share the connection with other computers and Wi-Fi devices, such as iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Apple TV. You can also share files among computers connected to the network. ÂCreate a guest network, with or without password protection to provide Internet-only access to wireless devices, such as computers, iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Apple TV. ÂConnect your Time Capsule to your Ethernet network. Wireless-equipped Mac, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7 computers can then have access to an entire network without being connected by a cable. ÂConnect a supported USB printer to your Time Capsule. Compatible computers on the AirPort network, both wireless and wired, can print to it. ÂConnect an additional USB hard drive to your Time Capsule. Compatible computers on the AirPort network, both wireless and wired, can access information on the hard disk. 7Chapter 1 Getting Started ÂConnect a USB hub to your Time Capsule, and then connect multiple USB devices, such as printers or hard disks. All computers on the network have access to those devices. Important: Use AirPort Utility to set up your Time Capsule. Previous versions of AirPort Setup Assistant and AirPort Admin Utility are not compatible with this Time Capsule. AirPort Utility is installed in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows. If AirPort Utility isn’t installed on your computer, you can download it from www.apple.com/support/airport. Apple periodically updates AirPort software. It’s recommended that you update your software to keep your Time Capsule up to date. Note: To download a copy of this setup guide in your language, open AirPort Utility and choose Help > AirPort Service and Support, and click Manuals. 8 Chapter 1 Getting Started About Your Time Capsule Your Time Capsule has five ports on the back: ÂOne 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Wide Area Network (WAN) port for connecting a DSL or cable modem, or for connecting to an existing Ethernet network ÂThree 10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) ports for connecting Ethernet devices, such as printers or computers, or for connecting to an existing Ethernet network ÂOne USB port for connecting a compatible USB printer, hard drive, or hub for connecting several devices Status lightInternet WAN port Power port Power cord Reset buttonUSB port Ethernet ports Security slot Ethernet activity light The reset button next to the ports is used for troubleshooting your Time Capsule. The status light on the front shows the current status. 9Chapter 1 Getting Started About the AirPort Software Your Time Capsule works with AirPort Utility, installed in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows. If AirPort Utility isn’t installed on your computer, you can download it from www.apple.com/support/airport. Use AirPort Utility and follow the instructions on the following pages to set up your Time Capsule and your AirPort wireless network. Note: You must use AirPort Utility v5.5.3 (or later) to set up your Time Capsule. This Time Capsule is not compatible with previous versions of AirPort software. AirPort Util…
