Great product, 5 stars. Apple Time Capsule is running with no issues, adding new computer to my home wifi network is easy, backup works great. Set up was easy, it works with no issues. I had Linksys before and it was on and off all the time. I love it. Great job Apple.
Made a setup with time capsule and the product is excellent.Also a very quick delivery
the good news is that the hard drive / time machine part works wellthe bad news is that all of the computers on my network (leopard or vista) randomly lose the router every couple of days. it is extremely annoying and i am now at the point of having to spend money to replace the product as i cant take it anymore.Many people on the apple forums recommend rebooting the router every week but i have had many linksys routers before this apple one and never once had to resort to that kind of action.in summary the quality of this product has been an disappointment for me.
It's strange that wireless has become so ubiquitous that one would by a router like this and not use the wireless capabilities at all. We've turned off all wireless and router capabilities. But that is exactly what we've done. We have 16 of these Time Capsules acting solely as remote backup drives. Each machine has a static ip address and we connect to it for our Time Machine backups. Overall, the hardware has been magnificent and the "Airport Utility" makes it quite easy to configure the device.
No settings to update or anything.Except a couple things had changed. I swapped out my old Apple Airport Extreme for this Time Capsule, left the network name and password unchanged -- and that was it. My desktop, and my wife's and my iPhones and MacBooks acted like nothing had changed. First, our network got lots faster. Second, now both of our 160GB MacBooks are always backed up on one hard drive, wirelessly and seemingly magically.How cool is that.
