computer. (For now, your goal is to plug the base station in where

you can set it up, though you may wish to skip ahead and read Pick

the Right Place before you continue.)

Now it’s time to power up. Plug your base station into an electrical

outlet, and plug an Ethernet cable

from your Mac into any of the

three

LAN ports on the Time Capsule or Extreme, or the single LAN

Ethernet port on the Express. You can also plug in a base station via

Ethernet to a switch or base station on the network to which your

computer or iOS device is connected. If you’d rather have mobility

while configuring, you can set up via Wi-Fi, but you must reconnect

after each time you change password or naming options.

In a neat addition, each Ethernet port on a base station has a tiny

green LED that lights up when an Ethernet cable

is connected to the

port and a live connection is on the other end of the cable; the LED

flashes to indicate activity (Figure 11).

Figure 11: A very, very tiny green LED inset into the Ethernet port

glows to show an active Ethernet connection and flashes on traffic.

Note: A green/amber LED on the front of the base station shows the

status of the base station. Light Reading, earlier, has more about the

front LED.

I recommend not connecting a base station via the WAN (Wide Area

Network) port to a broadband modem or the rest of your network until

you’ve carried out more of the setup, especially the very next part.
