    Been asking this question over two other forums, just couldn't get a good response. Hopefully, I have a better luck with you guys here. :)


    Well, let's cut to the chase, shall we?

    I can't find anything close to mentioning NAS in the Time Capsule manual setup. I've got everything updated (lion, airport, TC firmware) so I am ready to roll. But how the heck do you set it up as a NAS?


    Btw, a side question. When I do succeed at setting it up as a NAS, can TC back up my macbook air even if I am in starbucks or library?

    Inquiring mind needs to justify the $300 price tag now.
