I just installed Airport TC. Get flashing "double nat" on TC's Status. Changed to bride mode and computer loses connectivity to the internet saying ip address is already in use. Ipv4 set to DHCP only. Please advise.

After you set the Time Capsule to Bridge Mode.....

Did you power off both your modem/router and the Time Capsule, wait a minute, start the modem/router first and let it run a few minutes, then start the Time Capsule?

Would not hurt to restart your computer as well.

I've never been able to duplicate that type of error, so I don't have a way to figure out the solution.

Maybe another user can help on this one.

If I'm reading my screen right the IP address is the same for both Tc and the MacBook. I'm sure I'm reading that wrong
