The built-in wizard will help you set it up. It is also a wireless access point itself, so you could take it with you if you travel somewhere or if the wireless radio in your Time Capsule breaks.

I have a Time Capsule 802.11n (1st Gen) and it is in one section of my house but then I have a lot of dead spots in various spots of the house. Is there an easy way to extend the signal using additional units or something? And if so, what exact hardware and what exact settings for that would work for this 1st gen Time Capsule? <br />
<br />
Thanks.

Apple devices including Macs, iPhones, iPods and iPad support standard wired and wireless networking technologies, but they also utilize custom applications and some special techniques for networking with each other and with non-Apple devices. Apple manufacturers the AirPort line of wireless networking products, and has its own networking protocols, AppleTalk and AFP (Apple Filing Protocol).

Apple Networking

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.
