The Time Capsule box combines a 2TB hard drive with a wireless AirPort Extreme router to provide backup storage, plus a printer and file server.

The new Time Capsule is accessible to MobileMe subscribers and provides a Guest Network which allows users to set up separate network without having to expose the main WiFi password.

    Please do not use your wifi router on a metal platform, surrounded by metal or metallic objects around. The metal is a barrier to radio waves frequency. If you put your TimeCapule on the surface of the picture these drastically reduce your communication channel.
