Use the AirPort Utility setup assistant to enter your ISP settings and configure how your Time Capsule shares the settings with other computers.
1Open AirPort Utility, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder on a computer using Mac OS X, or in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows.
If AirPort Utility isn’t installed on your computer, you can download it from www.apple.com/support/airport.
2Select your Time Capsule and click Continue.
If you’re making changes to a Time Capsule that has already been set up,
you might have to connect to the network it’s created before making changes to the Time Capsule.
To choose the wireless network you want to change on a Mac, use the AirPort status menu in the menu bar. On a computer using Windows, hold the pointer over the wireless connection icon until you see the network name (SSID), and then choose it from the list if there are multiple networks available.
3Follow the onscreen instructions to configure and share Internet access on your Time Capsule.
AirPort Utility provides a quick and easy way to set up your Time Capsule and network. If you want to set additional options for your network, such as restricting access to your network or setting advanced DHCP options, choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu of AirPort Utility.
