Time Capsule Issues

[ekrueger24]

I've had my Time Capsule for a few years now and just last night it completely dropped the Wi-Fi connection while my main router worked. Unplugged the router to restart the connection and it fixed it. Now, just this morning, the same thing happened again and I resolved it in the same way. Looked in AirPort Utility and found out that while before it showed my Time Capsule as a part of my network, it now shows the Time Capsule, but says that it is not part of the network. Which I find odd as the computer I am typing this on is connected to internet via the Time Capsule.

Anything I should do to perhaps prevent it from happening again or to get AirPort Utility to re-recognize the Time Capsule as part of the network?

Model: A1409
OS: Current for device

Thanks

Try doing a factory reset, give it a static IP address, and downgrade to 7.6.1 in that order of things to check.

Uh, why the downgrade?

Uh, why the downgrade?

Occasionally, 7.6.1 would be more stable in some configurations.
