How do I replace my AirPort Extreme Time Capsule with a new one?

I'm having issues setting up my new time capsule. I currently have the first gen time capsule and I'm having difficulty setting up the new one. The system is not recognizing the new one. What do I need to do??

AirPort Extreme time capsule -OTHER, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4), AirPort Extreme time capsule

You must use the latest utility 6.3 in the lion/mountain lion OS.. You must turn on ipv6 local link.

If you are trying to do it over wireless.. reset to factory and start over.. the new unit must be at factory settings to work with the utility.


IMHO use ethernet.. it is far superior.. You don't have to use it once it is setup.


But the setup will go easier with hard wired connection.
