Hi all,
I recently bought a new wireless router with the idea of using my old airport express base station to boost the signal of the new router.
However, since setting up the new router and plugging the base station in in another room, Airport Utility cannot detect it. The light is flashing amber. When I reset the base station with a paperclip, it showed up in Utility and I configured it to boost the signal. However, it hung on the restart part of the process and is once again flashing amber and cannot be found.
My question is: is it dying? (Internet had been cutting out with irritating regularity, and I'm wondering if that was to do with a failing base station)
