Pop the top, there are some big capacitors on the ABS board, betcha they're swollen. Google 'Airport Base Station Capacitor Replacement' for the fix, which is to replace the electrolytic ones with tantalum caps. The tantalum caps are a lot more expensive, but you're only using two or three of 'em.
That would be, replace the aluminum caps with tantalum caps. They are both electrolytic caps.
