![]() ![]() The only other change in my home is a new hot water heater that was just added in the basement. We have a Honeywell Hub connected to the Time Capsule that connection has been there & stable for more than 1 year. He is connected to the Time Capsule by Ethernet and has wifi turned off. He had been using the older iOS version on his iMac, but otherwise all his connections & settings have stayed the same. My husband has substituted a MacBook Pro, running iOS 10.11.6., for his older iMac (which was running Yosemite) and has also attached a Gdrive, running Yosemite, that he is using as a secondary drive. These are the only changes to which I can point, but so far as I can troubleshoot, they don't seem to reflect any problems: I've tried to explore the few subtle changes that have occurred within the past month. That makes sense, but for the fact that basically nothing's changed within my system. The Apple technician with whom I spoke indicated that the problem must be in something that's causing interference with my WiFi signal. They concluded everything appears to be in tact. I then contacted Apple and they reviewed my setup and settings with me. These speeds, in addition to the remote modem testing Spectrum did, seem to rule out any problems with the modem. I did a direct Ethernet connection between my Motorola modem and my MacBook Pro (running El Capitan 10.11.6) and attained download speeds of 120 MBps and upload speeds of around 12MBps. ![]() I've done a lot of troubleshooting, including contacting my provider, Spectrum. We generally use the site to run the speed tests, though I've tried other test sites, as well, where speeds continue to test in the 65-75 MBps range. Also, my husband gets pretty much the same speeds on his MBPro, even though he's connected to the TC via Ethernet. ![]() If it means anything, though my iPad typically tests a little slower than my MBPro, I reach the very same speeds on my iPad, as well. that includes even when I'm right at the Time Capsule. I test speeds frequently, at all times of day & night.Ī few weeks ago my download speeds very suddenly dropped to 65-75 MBps, no matter what room in my house I'm in when I test, my speeds are the same. I am subscribed to 100 MBps down and 10 MBps upload speeds and have been very stable at getting between 90-95 MBps down and 11+ up for a good number of years now. As per your instructions, my TC is set to "Create a wireless network" and each of my Expresses is set to "Extend a wireless network." My TC Router Mode is set on DHCP and NAT my Express modes are all Off (Bridge Mode). I have a Time Capsule 802.11a/c router extended, throughout my home, with 4 Airport Express 802.11n units. Through this support site, you helped me set up a Roaming Wireless Network several years ago. During the setup, the utility will indicate that the Time Capsule is being set up to "extend using Ethernet", but if you check the settings in AirPort Utility after the Time Capsule has been set up, you will see that the "Create" setting was actually applied. Or, if you want to start over again and reset the Time Capsule back to factory default settings, you can use Apple's AirPort Utility set up "wizard" and it will automatically apply the correct settings to the Time Capsule. Make sure that the Time Capsule is configured to operate in Bridge Mode, which Apple calls "Off (Bridge Mode)" And you indicate that the Time Capsule is connecting using Ethernet.Ĭhange the setting to "Create a wireless network" that uses the exact same wireless network name(s) and same password. The Time Capsule was acting up before all of this so I performed a factory default reset on it and have configured it to Extend the Network created by the Airport ExtremeĮxtend a wireless network is a setting that is used only if the Time Capsule is connecting using a wireless connection. ![]()
