Hi- my son's G4 (733mhz) earlier yesterday was able to see and use the Time Capsule that we recently got. Then later in the day he couldn't. He accesses the internet just fine but only by using the Guest Network-the TC (which is set up as a base station) is no longer an option. My MBP and my husband's MB can see and access the TC just fine and we are using the TC as the network base station. Software is up to date on the G4, permissions repaired. Tried putting in the IP address from the Finder and that didn't work either. I really need to find the fix for this problem. I have the TC set up with WPA/WPA2 security (same set up for the Guest Network) and both the TC and Guest Network use the same password. So what's up do you think???? confused

I really appreciate any help with this! Judy

He cant get to the drive on the guest network ... he needs to be connected to the non guest network. At this point I do not know why he can't get to the non guest network, but thats why he can't get to the shared drive.

Yea, that's the catch. It's strange that he could for a few days, maybe a week, and then suddenly he can't connect to the network........ Judy
