[QUOTE="Luther Mac, post: 1421320, member: 254228"] Well I was wondering if you could plug a conventional WiFi stick into the USB port and then the Time Capsule would be the router to the rest of my devices. But you answered the question. I also own a USB stick that is its own Wifi modem/router. I can plug it directly into a wall socket and up to 10 devices can connect to the network at once. Im assuming that if I plugged it into the TC it would work, it would simply be using the TC as a power source. The TC would then be able to connect to the USB stick's wifi signal wirelessly (even tho they are physically connected) and then the TC could rebroadcast the wifi signal in its normal routing manner.
