went home , tried again, fail. i'm deciding whether sell or keep on messing it..
want give visual of i'm doing , how set in household.
okay modem , linksys router in room downstairs in closet (in built in wall box). , other router, 1 i've been connecting located in brothers room upstairs. modem has 1 port linksys router connects it, , else runs through linksys through wall ethernet ports (like a1, a2, etc) belkin (the 1 brothers room) used in port 1 of linksys. technique i've used time capsule reset countless times, make name blah blah, choose "i don't have something , want create new one", choose "bridge mode", , click continue rest. keep in mind i'm using wall port. seems dandy sets, green light flashes, , shows option connection. doesn't connect internet. somehow though connects time machine , reads everything..
