Hi all,
I have read several threads about the time capsules reporting having a non valid IP address, and funny old thing mine does too.....
The common theme of the threads is that there is no real answer (well, that works for me anyway).
I have my broadband running through a Thomson wireless router, and then connected via ethernet cable to my 3rd Gen. Time Capsule. I generally use the time capsule to generate the wireless network for my home internet.
My TC has been working fine for over a year, until the other day when the dreaded amber light of doom started to flash....and yes it was the non valid IP address.
Nothing I did seemed to resolve the issue, and I am confident that it was not my ISP as I could connect to the internet through the Thomson wireless router. I left it alone in frustration, and overnight the problem remedied itself.
No more than a day later and I am left with the same problem.
Is my TC on the way out (only about a year old 3rd Gen model)?
Is it my ISP?
Is TC just a bit cr
p as the wireless router?
If anyone has the answer or can give me a permanent solution, I will send you a virtual bunch of flowers or pint of beer (whatever you fancy).
As ever, many thanks!
