Hi

Sorry if this is a bit Mickey Mouse...

I've been running two Airport Express things on my wireless network for about a year. Recently something prompted me to reconfigure the router, and I took the opportunity to give the network a new name and password.

Trouble is, I can't seem to get the Airport Expresses to link to this new network. In the Airport Utility I have tried clicking them and selecting edit to change the network name etc, but they always just throw a configuration error, and also drops the entire wireless connection from the mac as well.

Is there some way to wipe them clean and start afresh? Or has anyone any tips n how to get the new settings in?

Many thanks for your help

Matt

I believe this may be what you're looking to do; from the Apple user discussions forum:
