This error -6753 is not documented appropriately.

I got this error on our Extreme N this week. Latest software, 5.3.2, latest airport updates, and problem occurred with every Mac we tried to control it with.

It would show in yellow, try to read hte configuration, and fail after a few minutes.
I was ready to factory reset it yesterday, and hte only reasn I didn't do this was not wanting to add everything again to it. It has a MAC address list that is waaay longer than what Express would support.
So, yesterday and this week all the time this airport showing in yellow, trying to read its configuration, and when I enter manual mode, it would fail in few minutes. Always this error



Also when connecting to it via ethernet.

Today it worked. It still showed as yellow but it worked. So I added some MAC addresses, removed some, and restarted it. Now it gets the -6753 again. I suspect in a few days it will not get the message again, and if this happens, I will rescue the MAC address list, and reset it from scratch.

It seems to me it's something preventing the configuration from being read.
But airport log files are useless - I would really like to see what would be in the logs, if there were any. In system logs of the Macs there is obviously nothing, and tcpdump would be pointless as well. I want to also figure why this error happens.

Smile 6753 error using default public password

I was successful and just wanted to share that I was using ethernet to set it up but somehow the wireless adapter was interfering. I just disabled the wireless adapter and it configged with no issues!
