How to connect a Time Capsule to a MacBookPro

With Apple's Time Capsule, you get both wireless router and external hard drive backup functionality. You can easily connect to Time Capsule from your MacBook Pro by simply connecting your device to your internet modem.

You can use Time Capsule to create a new wireless network or add it to an existing network. Once connected, Time Capsule works with Apple's Time Machine app to back up your data, giving you peace of mind.

1. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the Time Capsule’s WAN port. Plug the other end into an open Ethernet port on your modem.

2. Plug the Time Capsule’s power cord into the device and plug the other end into an open outlet. Open the Applications folder on your MacBook Pro, and then open the Utilities folder.

3. Select "AirPort Utility". When AirPort Utility opens, select the Time Capsule, and then select Continue. Follow the on-screen instructions to use Time Capsule to set up a wireless network or add a device to an existing network.

Back up data
