Hiya,
I've just bought a time capsule to use as purely an external hard drive and wireless router. I am running 10.4.11
I am running it through an exisiting cable modem which I must use and for some reason just cannot get an internet connection. It's constantly flashing amber.
I have a macbook pro which I want to connect wirelessly and an imac which I want to connect via ethernet.
Question is, which one do I use to set it up, and which options do I choose? I currently don't have wireless at all but the options confuse me. From the Imac I want to connect via ethernet but I also want to set up a wireless network. I tried setting up the wireless network but then I lost all my options and all airport utility would let me do was keep rescanning for one. In the end I had to reset the Time Capsule to get the set up options back.
Help!
