Yellow blinking light on Time Capsule.

I have a yellow blinking light on our Time Capsule (router and backup). I have gone into the Airport Utility and did an update. It did "something" (in other words, it stopped blinking and then started again.) Anyway - it is not green yet. We are able to get on the internet, but some wifi services are not working. We know we need to get a new router soon, so we can stream tv services and get off of cable, but I was hoping to get this working in the meantime. I am on an old system on my computer (yes I will be getting a new computer soon). Anything you tell me to do to get the router working (green light)?

iMac 27″, OS X 10.10

I just noticed that you have "Enable Access Control: Timed Access Control" checked and mine is not.

Should this be checked?


Yes and no.


Yes, if you want to set up "rules" that allow a Wi-Fi device to only connect to the network at certain times. For example, when he visits, my grandson can only connect to the network here from 7 AM to 11 PM.


No, if you don't need to set up special "rules" to allow devices to connect to your Wi-Fi network.
