If your Time Capsule is "tall", like a "tower", you have the 802.11ac version of the product, which some users call a 5th Generation Time Capsule, although Apple never used this terminology for the product. Model number is A 1470.
If your Time Capsule is "flat" or "square" shaped, like a small white pizza box, look on the bottom of the device to find the Model Number, which is usually embedded in the foam pad base.
The model number starts with an "A" followed by 4 numbers.
A 1254 is a 1st Generation Time Capsule
A 1302 is a 2nd Generation Time Capsule
A 1355 is a 3rd Generation Time Capsule
A 1409 is a 4th Generation Time Capsule
If you want to know more about whichever version you have, post back with the model number that you find.
