Can TimeCapsule be put into bridge mode? Can I avoid a double NAT? My router or PIX will NAT the clients; Can I bridge the connection?
I have a DSL modem which can of course attach to this. Is it only capable of acting as a router or can it be put into bridge mode so I can put my Cisco PIX behind the DSL modem. In this way currently the PIX assigns a DHCP address to attached clients. Nothing is mentioned about this device having firewall capabilities and I require them.

Can I Setup Time Capsule in bridge Mode with my Linksys E3000
I would like to use my Linksys E3000 router as my main device. I just like the functions of the time capsule for wireless backup using Time Machine. I have read that you can set the Time Capsule in bridge mode and connect it to my Linksys via the Ethernet cable. I want to use my wireless signal from my Linksys and just use the Time Capsule as a backup.
Still connected to my Linksys Wifi signal on my Macbook will Time machine work
Thus being connected to the Time Capsule though the linksys.
Macbook to the linksys and linksys to the time cap
The wireless function of the Time Capsule are just to limited.
Will this work?- Asked by Chris F from Dania Beach

Network not visible when using bridge?
Ok, so I've got this rather extensive setup.
Cable modem-linksys router-bridge-bridge-Time Capsule. The linksys router provides DHCP. The Time Capsule provides wifi.
Here's the problem. When I connect another computer (A windows xp machine) to a bridge that bridges back to the network, I can't see my mac, nor the Time Capsule. If I take that bridge out and connect via WIFI, I can now see the time capsule and the mac. Does the time capsule not provide any wired access to the time capsule, only wifi? Also, any idea why my mac isn't visible on the network to the PC? Hope this makes sense...- Asked by Paul B from Tucson

Does Time Capsule work with at&t u-verse?
at&t u-verse provides a wireless router built into the system. Would it be safe to assume that you can put the Time Capsule in bridge mode and still use them at the same time?

Can I use the time capsule as a wifi ethernet bridge? TC connects wirelessly to another router and enables internet via ethernet cable?
I have an existing cheap wifi router that works (frankly better than the TC which frequently refuses connections to PCs). I want to connect the time capsule to that wifi network wirelessly, but then connect the TC to my xbox 360 via ethernet cable so I can stream netflix. Does the TC do that? How would I set that up?

Can I use the Time Capsule as an VPN Client
Is it possible to use the TimeCapsule as an VPN Client, so that every device connected to Time Capsule is automatically connected to the VPN.
I usually use a VPN Client software on my Mac or iPhone to connect to the VPN Network of the University i work for from home. My question is if the TimeCapsule can establish such a connection my itself, so that all devices I connect to the TimeCapsule are connected to the VPN automatically.- Asked by Jan G

Bridging the Time Capsule but using it as a WIFI access point and use with Windows Server 2008 for serving the IP addresses in my WAN. Can it be done?
I would like to use this device in my office environment. We have been moving form PC to MAC and loving every min. My current set up is this, MODEM (bridged) connected to WIFI - DLINK router connected to WINDOWS Server (which is serving up the IP address within my WAN).
Can I replace my DLINK with the Time Capsule to achieve the same results. Using the server to serve the IP address and the Time Capsule to use as a WIFI access point and the back up drive of course.

Can I use the TimeCapsule as the wifi medium to transmit a signal from my mac to my wifi enabled big screen TV to be used as an external monitor?
I have an HDTV that is wifi enabled and I would like to use it as an external monitor to either my mac air or my mac desktop without the need to connect to it using cables. It appears any wifi-enabled device can connect to the Capsule via wifi. Now my question is: would I be able to use the Time Capsule something like a "bridge" or connecting point of communication between my macs and my wifi-enabled tv to use my TV as an external monitor from anywhere in my house? I would really like to be able to get rid of the need to use an HDMI or any other cable to connect my mac to the tv.

Can the TC do double duty. i.e. as an internet router/back up device in one home, then as a back-up device only in a second home?
Here's the deal, we have two homes. In the main house we would use the TC to replace an existing Airport Extreme to function as the wireless internet router (as the Extreme currently does, working with a device from our microwave wireless provider) plus, of course, as back-up for three Macs.
Then, when we travel to California for winter, can we bring the Time Capsule down there, plug it into a wall outlet and use it simply as a back-up AND bridge device with the existing AirportExpress. (I'd rather not undo the Express as it plugs into the wall behind the stereo amplifier/tuner and is hard-wired into it for iTunes, Pandora, etc. play over the amp which then plays throughout the house speakers.) Would the TC function OK in a network as a 'subordinate' to the Express?- Asked by E. William B from Sagle

I have a Time Capsule as the hub of my network, I have two other airport extremes connected wirelessly to bridge the network right now.
How, and what would it change if I could extend the network (bridge) over ehternet? For example, I have an ethernet port in my upstairs office, but the Time Capsule is down on the opposite end of the house in the basement (my house has 3 floors). Would it be faster, stronger, and just better to extend over ethernet?
Thank you!- Asked by Adam K from Costa Mesa

i understand i can connect tc1 to bt home hub but that i must disable the hub wireless signal and 'bridge' . How is this done in VERY simple terms
I am not very tec so please give step by step instructions to insert a TC1 into my system which consists of an imac, PC, iphone , two mac books, a wireless printer currently connected to imac and a BT home hub. the PC has a wireless stick. I would like to move the Hub from the lounge to the study upstairs , doing this previously seemed to affect the signal downstairs at certain times(slow or disappeared), and keep the TC1 in the study upstairs once configured. I am hoping to get a strong signal everywhere and have the back up to time machine for everybody.

Can I make a backup of my TimeCapsule backup?
The issue I'm wanting to avoid is loss of data if I lose both the computer and the Time Capsule (i.e. fire or theft). So can I attach an external hd to the Time Capsule and set it to make backups of the Time Capsule backup. I would then rotate external hard drives, keeping one locked in a fireproof safe or off-site. Or is there another way to achieve this?

Will the time capsule function within an existing wirless network as a bridge only.
I have a very new and efficient wireless network currently, non-Mac. I would like to utilize the time capsule as a wireless backup only. If time capsule also extends the wirless range of my current network that would be a plus.

Does TC work like Airport Express?
Meaning that:
1> When setup in Bridge Mode it connects wirelessly to my current WAP (Wireless Access Point), and will it also be a WiFi repeater?
2 > The Ethernet Ports work as a switch so when other devices are plugged in, they too will wirelessly connect to my home network?
3> The USB Port can be used to connect as a network printer (with Bonjour)?
4> And by doing all of the above it can hopefully still be used by my MAC's to do wireless Time Machine backups?- Asked by Jerry H from Lake Mary
