For some reason, when I plug in my airport express the light flickers once, and then refuses to turn on (no yellow or green light). It isn't an outlet issue, as the same outlet works well for everything else.

This has happened before, but simply switching outlets would fix it. Now that doesn't help. Is the unit fried, or is there something I can do?
