Hardware Media Access Control (MAC) Addresses
The AirPort Time Capsule has three hardware addresses:

Â

AirPort ID: Two addresses are used to identify the AirPort Time Capsule on a wireless network.

Â

Ethernet ID: You may need to provide this address to your ISP to connect your
AirPort Time Capsule to the Internet.

Using Your AirPort Time Capsule Safely

Â

The only way to shut off power completely to your AirPort Time Capsule is to disconnect it
from the power source.

Â

When connecting or disconnecting your AirPort Time Capsule, always hold the plug by its
sides. Keep your fingers away from the metal part of the plug.

Â

Your AirPort Time Capsule should not be opened for any reason, even when it’s
unplugged. If your AirPort Time Capsule needs service, see “Learning More, Service, and
Support” on page 21
.

Â

Never force a connector into a port. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable
ease, they probably don’t match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that
you’ve positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
