So ever since I got my Airport Time Capsule, I've been having nasty issues with it. 99% of the time, when I try to update the configuration (network name, password, ports, time control settings, etc) the airport utility (whether it be via ethernet or wireless, or mac/pc/iphone) fails in the restart stage, and I have to manually unplug the router to reset it. At that point, it's obvious the router crashed and never saved the new settings.
😡
The funny thing is, after trying tons of things (dozens of default resets, reset button resets, reconfiguration), I've found the one trick that always works:
Unplugging the WAN port so the router isn't connected to my modem (a motorola sb6121 on comcast).
I have no idea why that is, but.. does anyone else have that problem? If I unplug that I can do all of the reconfiguration I wish and it'll restart flawlessly.
