Setting Up Your Time Capsule
Using Your Time Capsule to Create Your Wireless Network
When you set up your Time Capsule to provide network and Internet access, the
following computers and devices can access the wireless AirPort network to share files,
play games, and use Internet applications such as web browsers and email
applications:
Â
Macintosh computers with AirPort or AirPort Extreme Cards
Â
802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and IEEE 802.11n draft specification wireless-equipped
computers
Â
Other Wi-Fi devices
Computers connected to your Time Capsule using Ethernet can also access the
network to share files and connect to the Internet.
With Mac OS X v10.5.2 or later you can set up Time Machine to back up all the
computers on the network to your Time Capsule. See “Using Time Machine with Your
Time Capsule” on page 23 for more information.
When you connect a compatible USB printer to your Time Capsule, supported
computers on the network (wired and wireless) can print to it.
