Mac time machine w/ air port and optik set up

[NFtoBC]

Easiest if you do that. Wi-Fi off and in 'Bridge Mode' It should then be assigned a DCHP address when connected to the LAN.

[NFtoBC]

It should be working without any difficulty.

My DNS settings are greyed out in the Internet tab.

Also this is my Disks Tab:

And here's my Base Station Tab:

[Emperor12]

Hmmm weird. Those tabs are exactly like mine....you didn't have to enable anything in the Telus router? To maybe let info pass through?

[NFtoBC]

No, I made no changes in the Telus Router.

Your Ethernet cable looks correctly connected.

Is the light on the Time Capsule Green?

[NFtoBC]

You can access the Time Capsule with the AirPort utility when on Wi-Fi?

AHA!!

I am using the T1200H not the T3200M. I had problems with my Apple i-devices not connecting to networked devices via Wi-Fi on the 3200, and switched back. Things like AirPrint, Home Sharing, Hue lights, etc would not work.  @Nighthawk has had good success by using another router connected to the T3200M. Let's see if he will jump in!

[Emperor12]

yup...the light is green....and I can access Airport Utility... =/

[NFtoBC]

If you can access the Time Capsule via AirPort utility, it should work for the rest.  Double check you have properly selected the drive in preferences. Beyond that I'm stumped.

[NFtoBC]

If absolutely necessary, you can connect your Mac to the Time Capsule directly by Ethernet or Wi-Fi, but then you'd lose all the benefits of the seamless backups.

After a good old fashion reboot....it is working. I really appreciate your help much thanks!

[NFtoBC]

:Facepalm:

Glad you found the solution!

[Emperor12]

This is ridiculous...but...I've moved to a building that doesn't have Telus. (Telus was better).....and I am back to "the other one".....would anyone happen to know the previous settings for The Airport Utility etc.? I don't know what they were on before I changed them...thanks. ...again =)

[NFtoBC]

Would a reset do what you want?

Else, if you can provide a bit more detail as to which settings you are needing changed, I can offer more detail.

[Emperor12]

Hmm I don't want to lose my data that is stored on it. I am not sure what your advice did to it in the first place really (to allow it to work with Telus) so I am not really sure what I need it to do...I'll look into it after dinner... =)

[NFtoBC]

Mine just sits on the network as a dumb device, as only a Time Capsule, and not serving other devices. Under the Internet Tab, I chose to Connect using DHCP. Wireless is off. Network is Off.

[Emperor12]

Oh so it doesn't really matter if its Telus or whatever ..as long as its set like this. It should work then. Cool. Thanks again Mr. NFtoBC.
