All,

I have a Airport Extreme Base Station hooked up in the house broadcasting my DSL connection. I have no problems seeing the network under "internet connect", but for some reason, it doesn't show up in the AP admin utility...the Airport Setup Assistant sees the network, but won't let me into the settings....any ideas?

TIA!
Sponge

Did you fix this? I've managed to get set up utility to see it but I keep getting an error message:

"An error occurred while reading the configuration.."

I can't get any further than that. Any ideas anyone?

Nope! I guess I'll have to call Apple tech support...

I've just got it!

Reset the base station. Go to network settings, click airport, then click on 'manual' for IP address. Eneter 10.0.1.2

Then apply and go back to your airport admin utility and try again. That fixed it for me.
