What is the best way to use time capsule with time warner Arris TG862 router. I have been having problems recently with wifi network connections throughout my home. I am not sure what seems to be the problem!
iMac, iOS 7.0.4
You must configure the Time Capsule to connect to the router's network in Bridge Mode - Join existing network.
If you can I would use the Time Capsule as your network router and remove the one from TW unless what you have is a modem/router.
Kappy is dead on correct about Bridge Mode as a requirement for the Time Capsule.
Do you know how to check to see if the Time Capsule is configured this way?
Next question.....you really should not try to have two wireless networks....one Arris and another Time Capsule.....unless it is absolutely necessary. Two wireless routers in close proximity can create wireless interference effects that can cause problems with either...or both...networks.
Best to turn off the wireless on one router to keep the chances of wireless interference between routers minimized.
Are both the Arris and Time Capsule providing wireless signals?
I just got this same modem to use with my Xfinity service and my Apple Time Capsule (the tower). When I called to activate the modem, I told the rep that I also wanted it in full Bridge mode so that I could use my Time Capsule as the router instead of the built-in WiFi. She turned the WI FI to the modem off, and the light went off. I then went ahead and connected my Time Capsule as usual. Everything seems to be working perfectly, including the phone.
