Need Urgent Help with Airport Extreme Base Station
I was playing with the settings in AirPort utility & changed the setting from Create a Wireless Network to Extend a Wireless Network, or something like that. The green light on the front of the AEBS went orange started blinking, but stayed orange. Now I can't select my wireless network to connect to, its just not there!
I am connected at the moment by direct connecting to my adsl modem.
I need to get my wireless network back asap.
Please help!

You have two options, do a hard reset to reset all the settings, details are found here;

Resetting the AirPort Extreme Base Station

Or get an ethernet cable, plug into the Airport and run the utility. It should pick it up.

Many thanks!
The hard reset did the trick.
I'll have to remember that one in future.
Thanks again

It is also a good idea to use the application to make a backup of your airport base station configuration.
