I have a 2TB Time Capsule that does backups as well as allowing wireless access to laptops, ipod touch and mobile phones. Is there any way to schedule the wireless access? I'd quite like the kids to stop getting access beyond a certain time each day without having to prise their laptops out of their hands or switching the time capsule off every night ;)
 
In AirPort Utility, go to the Access Control tab in Manual Setup. Then edit the default to whichever settings you would like. You can set it to "Everyday between XXXX and XXXX". And if you want to give your own computer unlimited access, add a rule with your MAC address granting you access anytime.
 
Thanks much appreciated. At 11:00 last night I heard a gnashing of teeth from the youngest as his iPod Touch disengaged :D

Haha! Glad to help! Just don't let them know it was me, lest they find these forums :p
