Help! Airport Base Station Failure!

Help! Airport Base Station Failure! Software 3 posts Aug 29, 2002 — Aug 30, 2002
I use a snow airport base station here, and it worked fine until today. Everything worked fine, most recent update installed okay and I was online for hours. Then powered it all off. Fired it back up now and its dead in the water, with a solid white third light (the others are not lit).

Any ideas welcome - this is a pain in the butt.
Just thought I'd add a bit more info.

When the base station is turned on, the left and right white lights come on and the middle is off. Then after a second all three come on for about five seconds. Then they all go off and the right white light comes on without fail, steady and not flashing.

I have tried soft and hard reset, neither work at all.

This appears to have happened after the first time the base station was turned off after updating to the most recent base station software.

Thanks for any input folks.
I love Macwarehouse - they're coming to pick it up from me on Monday to run tests etc. Should have a replacement within a week according to them.

If anyone else experiences anything similar let me know. According to Macwarehouse it sounds like regular hardware failure.
