its an older airport base station. its all set up and my computer can connect and the internet works fine. it just doesnt come up in the airport utility so i can make changes to the settings. maybe do a hard reset and start over? thanks for any input.

Airport Wireless Admin Access

If you are trying to access it wirelessly, the default setting is to NOT allow wireless administration.
Plug a wire in and you will almost certainly be able to administer it.
