When Time Capsule rebooted, the extended WLAN and internal storage were both on-line. I plugged Time Capsule in and set it up with credentials for AirPort Extreme. I set up Time Capsule to extend a WLAN served by my existing AirPort Extreme (802.11n) base station. In a business, branch office, point of sale, or SOHO setting, it is Time Capsule’s combination of shared storage, network printing and extended WLAN that make the device a must-buy. In commercial settings, all kinds of creative infrastructure options can be crafted by stringing Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme units together through your wired or wireless LAN. For individual users, Time Capsule can be used as a cable-free external hard drive. One compact, passive cooled, AC-powered device not only houses an 802.11n access point with traditional capabilities, but it also has wireless bridge mode for one-click range expansion of an existing wireless network, easy administration from Windows and OS X, and 500 GB or 1 TB of internal storage published as a standard Windows and/or Mac shared volume. After working with Time Capsule for several months, I’ve concluded that every Wi-Fi access point should have a built-in hard drive.
