Airport Utility 5.6.1.2 is a practical utility that guides owners of Apple's AirPort devices to share a wireless Internet connection. The main interface of this application on Windows is rather easy to understand. It includes two panels, the right-hand side is where a list of discovered Airport networks will be displayed. I am aware it is incompatible with AirPort Utility 6.1, so I have connected it by ethernet cable to a my G5 PowerMac running OSX 10.5.8 and airport utility 5.6.1. It does not detect it at all. I also tried connecting it by wifi to my windows pc running Airport Utility 5.6.1 and it also does not detect it.

Basically, these kinds of stations work just like a well-known router does. Simply connect the required cables, then let the application to configure your network. Actually, when referring to Time Capsule, we are referring to a wireless device combined with a gateway router, so it should be easy to configure it.
