Is it possible to use AirPort Time Capsule backing up my iMac wirelessly but without using it as a Wi-Fi base station? Kinda confusing but basically I want to continue using my current router for broadcasting Wi-Fi.
 
Yes, connect it to your current network and set it to be in bridged mode with Wireless set to be off. You may have to configure it before you connect it to your current network.
 
Over thought this. Probably just best to disable wireless on my current router and instead use the wireless from time capsule as it should be quicker. Thanks Intell
