I have two 1 TB time capsules. How can I connect them together or how can I use the second unit to expand my network? I currently have 7 Apple computers on the network and a PS-3, in the basement, where the signal from the wireless network is the weakest.

Can you use Time Capsule to expand a current wireless network the same way as Airport Express does?
I have a router at my home already and don't need to replace it, but I need a back up drive and more wireless area. Will this do the job for me, or do I settle for an Airport Express?

will time capsule work with linksys 3000?
I have a modem from the cable company... I have a dell i7 with 8GB ramm, 1.5 TB and two - 2.0 TB drives and a 1 GB video card. I have connected this to a 32 " monitor with 4 HDMI imputs spaces... and it is imput #1. I have a loaded Mac Mini that is going into HMDI #2 with a 2 TB iomega drive attatched to it. I am interested on how I could use this 2 TB time capsule in conjunctions with my excisting linksys router wireless net work... I also have two iphones and two ipads... that already use the Linksys network along with two sony wireless computers. I would like to see if I could set up the Time Capsule to do the back up for the Mac Mini... and allow the iphone, ipads, and other wireless devices connect to it as well by changing the wifi network selction on that particular device... and still have it password protected? Oh... and also access the internet through this device as well? Do I need a dual output modem? Do they make those? BTW... the other two HDMI ports are going to be for an apple TV and a WDHD TV... the lights dim sometimes when I turn it on... I am interested in your thoughts on either how to handle this configuration... or is there a better option and what would be the trade-offs?

Can I use Time Capsule as a storage device as well as backup for my iMac using Time Machine, or can I only use it to back up files with Time Machine?
I'm currently using a WD 500GB Drive, which has a habit of turning itself into a standby state despite preference settings keeping it always on, and I have to restart the drive every time this happens, which is an inconvenience when storing files and no storage device is found when saving. I want to replace the WD with a 2TB Time Capsule and use the Time Capsule as a storage device, as well as a back up device via Time Machine for my iMac.

Can I attach a USB drive to Time Capsule to access music folders on a PC and Mac?
I know similar questions have been asked before but I wanted to describe my specific scenario before I purchase a TC.
I have a Mac and a PC on my home network, and the issue I keep running into is that it's hard to keep music up to date on both computers. If I put new music on one computer, I then have to hook up an external USB drive and transfer that music to the other one.
So my question is this: if I buy a Time Capsule, can I use the Time Capsule to wirelessly back up my Mac AND attach an external USB drive to the TC to access my music?
The idea would be to have the music only available on that external USB drive and "point" iTunes to that drive on both the Mac and PC. That way, both computers are accessing the same files and I don't have to update the folders between two different computers.- Asked by Josh C from North Augusta

Can i mirror two computers via a time capsule?
I have a 27" iMac and a 13" Macbook Pro and i want to have both computers to be clones of each other. I want everything that is on my iMac to be on my Macbook and vise vera. Can this be done?
I spoke with one of the guys at the mac store and got a "deer in the headlights" look. I can't believe i am the only one out here that would want this function. I just want all my data to be with me at all times. If i leave town for a day or two i still need to work so i still need my data on my macbook and when i get back to the office i need everything i worked on to show up on my iMac.- Asked by Dean T from Truth Or Consequences
