Hi,
Sorry if the title doesn't make much sense, but my question (I hope) is quite simple.
I have an AirPort Time Capsule (an older model) - it is currently in a upstairs in a room with a DVR which has no wireless capabilities (it needs to be connected via Ethernet).
The modem/router from my provider is downstairs (and I prefer to use that as my Time Capsule is old, but I've upgraded the hard drive for storage backups).
The Time Capsule is connected to my router wirelessly - is it possible therefore to use the Ethernet ports on the TC to connect the DVR to my network? Or are the Ethernet ports effectively turned off when it's not connected to the network via the WAN port?
