[QUOTE="mojonandha, post: 638153, member: 51623"] 1)Reset your Time Capsule by pressing and holding the little button for 5 seconds behind the TC. The light will blink amber several times before it stays amber. (I am asking you reset so we can start fresh with the company config, if you think your TC is with company config skip this step) 2)Connect the Ethernet cable from your other Router into the WAN port in the Timecapsule. 3)Use an another Ethernet cable to connect one end to the Time capsule's LAN port and the other End to your MAC. You will now see the timecapsule in your finder as a shared device with company set name . 4)Open the Airport Utility from your Utlities folder, it will say 'Discovering Apple wireless devices and the screen like the one below will appear.
