This has gotten very frustrating. I spent most of the weekend either trying to figure out terminology (bridge mode vs. client mode vs. STAProxy) or arguing with the Airport Express, with multiple soft (while already plugged in) and hard (while I'm plugging it in) resets. Now it refuses to show green under any circumstances, only flashing amber. Whenever I send the "update" command to it, the utility tells me the settings were updated, just wait for it to appear in the list, but it never does, it just flashes amber (after the solid-amber period). I also get a message saying there was an error, please try again. Is it possible that I have to do more than one hard reset in a row before I can make changes? Or what else might be going on? The thing is only a couple of months old, so I hope it's not defective, but if so could I use the (also practically new) wireless SMC router (SMCWBR14S-N2) to do the same bridge mode? Yeesh. Thanks in advance, once again!
