Q: How do I download Time Capsule firmware 7.5.2

I am running Snow Lepoard on my iMac.  My TC is a 4th gen that originally shipped with firmware version 7.6.  After upgrading the TC's firmware to 7.6.1, I keep getting a message that "Server connections interupted:".

 

It is pretty much the same as the below image:

 

I read on one of the forums to downgrade to a stable version of 7.5.2; however, I can't seem to figure out how to downloade this version and install it.

 

Since my TC originally shipped with 7.6, is that is far back as I can go?  If not, could I get a walkthrough...I am still pretty knew at this!

A:

From SL it should offer you 7.5.2 as an option.. if not, then you maybe correct that the TC is stuck because it originally shipped with 7.6.

 

Strangely enough, you might do better from a PC, which doesn't read the restrictions as well.. if you have a pc or a kindly friend with windows laptop who wouldn't mind installing the windows version of the airport utility.

 

For SL there is no advantage at all in going to 7.6.

    This editor is wierd, you can paste an image but it does not keep it!  Why even allow that if you have to go the point and click route! LOL!

    I rolled back the firmware to 7.6 and so far so good; however, would appreciate any suggestions, especially if 7.5.2 is a more stable build...

    So far the error has only happened once...since it came with 7.6, I think I will leave well enough alone. 

     

    Thanks for the tips!
