The Time Capsule needs a wired Ethernet connection to its WAN "O" port.

Check with Verizon to see if they have an adapter that would provide an Ethernet port so that you can connect the Time Capsule to your network using an Ethernet cable.

I believe you cannot. MiFi does not have a USB connection for the external Hartd disc.
You could try to find a wireless Router which has a Lan connection, like this http://www.routeripaddress.com/routers/2012/huawei-d100_default_settings.html
