I have blinking orange lights on two Apple AirPort Expresses. They are part of a network consisting of an Apple AirPort Extreme base which is connected by hardwire to a second AirPort Extreme. Both of these base stations have solid green lights. Then there are two AirPort Expresses receiving wifi wirelessly from the second base. For the longest time the two AirPort Expresses showed solid green lights. Now they are blinking orange. Can anyone tell me how to stop the blinking and get solid green lights?.

Well the orange blinking light means they are not connected to the internet. Sounds like the AirPort Expresses have lost their connection to the AirPort Extreme. You might get lucky and just shut them all off and turn them back on to reset them. If that does not work you are going to have to open the Airport utility and check what is going on. You may have to connect using an ethernet cable to the AirPort Express with the blinking orange light if they won't connect wirelessly to your mac's airport utility.

How ever you set them up in the past you are going to have to troubleshoot what happened or possibly changed.
