My 5ish year old Time Capsule disappeared and returned an hour later. It didn't show up in the AirPort Utility nor in the Finder, plus I didn't have internet. Then it came back. I opened the Utility and saw it needed a firmware update which I did. It has since run Time Machine backups, albeit slowly - that is, it stalls and is now taking at least 15 minutes to clean up a 280gig backup. This may be normal - I'm not usually paying attention..
Was this a gremlin or is it dying? I'd really rather not spend money on a new router and drive.
