Hi Everyone,
I am trying to stream movies off of a WD My Passport 1TB drive connected to the Time Capsule USB port. Every time I try to stream a movie or use the port to copy a file to Time Capsule (TC), it bombs out Time Capsule - i.e. Time Capsule loses all internet connections, freezes and is un reachable via Airport Utility. Also seems like anytime TC is busy doing something like backing up when Time Machine is running the WIFI connection suffers.
Can someone help me out with this? Is it because the USB port on TC is meant for printers only? What is a better way to use TC as a media server? Also is it better to lay off of internet usage when Time Machine is doing a backup to TC?
Any help is appreciated Thanks !
