How can I do a hard reset on my Airport Express?
I just bought a new Airport Extreme and its not recognizing my old Airport Express nodes. I think a hard reset would clear things up. If you have other suggestions, I'm all ears.

Inappropriate?The relevant information is here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.ht...
Basically, hold down the reset button (using a paperclip is best :)) for 10 seconds. The light should flash green a couple times and then it resets.

Inappropriate?By the way, if you follow the directions it says to do a factory reset, it doesn't actually do a factory reset, and will still give you the endless "Updating..." or this lovely window which will stay doing this for hours as apparently they never thought of implementing timeouts:
If you accept the "upgrade" when it asks, you'll see this until you force quit the program, whether you do it in 5 minutes or 5 hours:
Because with Apple products, it just doesn't work!
Also, attempting to google [update airport over ethernet] yields no helpful results, even though this forum thread says it's possible, Airport Utility sees no devices if I turn off airport and try to scan that way. Lovely.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?It seems I was lying (at least for reading configuration).
