[QUOTE="lombardi3g, post: 968081, member: 137184"] We have 3 Aluminum MacBooks that connect perfectly to the internet wirelessly via a 500mg Time Capsule. Time Machine functions are fine and I would like to keep this function. Our other MacBook is plastic and a bit older. It can receive Skype phone calls through the TC (wirelessly) but it cannot surf the web nor send/receive emails though it CAN do both when we travel and use a random router at a hotel or relative's home. I think the TC is a flaky router. I have been researching and fighting this problem for months now (on the Apple MacBook forum) and I am ready to move on. Moreover, our iPhones cannot surf via the TC's WiFi nor does Mail work though the connect bars are at maximum. Please recommend a router we can use in our home which can replace the TC yet still have the TC perform its Time Machine duties. TIA, Allan [/QUOTE]
