Remove the power adapter’s plug from the wall socket or remove the

end that plugs into the base station. Wait 10 seconds. Plug the base

station back in, and see if it appears in AirPort Utility. Everything may

be back to normal.

Reset the Base Station

If the above two options don’t work, then try a reset.

This step may erase any custom settings you’ve made. Straighten

an end of a paperclip, and with the base

station plugged into power,

hold down the base station’s reset button with the paperclip tip for

about 5 seconds until the status light turns amber and flashes rapidly.

Release the button and wait a minute or so for the base station to

restart.

Three Kinds of Reset

Apple has an extremely detailed FAQ about base station resets that’s

worth reading if you have problems. But the crucial thing to know is

that there are three kinds of resets on all 802.11n and 802.11ac base

stations. There’s a tricky bit here! The difference between a hard

reset and a factory reset is the state of the device—not how long you

hold down the button! Read on:

✦

Soft reset: Hold reset for 1 second, and the base station disables

passwords and network security for 5 minutes, during which time

you may change settings, including passwords. AirPort Utility

indicates the device is in a “soft reset” state, and its LED flashes

amber.

✦

Hard reset: Hold reset for 5 seconds, and the base station flashes

its LED rapidly in amber, and then restarts. While it boots up in

a clean, factory state, it also stores your previous settings. To

restore those settings, click Other Wi-Fi Devices in AirPort Utility

(at the upper left of the main AirPort Utility for Mac screen), click

Other Options, select Restore Previous Settings, and then click

Next on subsequent screens.

✦

Factory reset: If a base station is truly crashed and cannot boot,

its firmware knows! Hold reset for 5 seconds, and the base station

reboots like in a hard reset, but your previous configuration is lost.
