Your AirPort Express Isn’t Responding
Try unplugging it and plugging it back in to a power outlet.
If your AirPort Express stops responding completely, you may need to reset it to the
factory default settings. This erases all of the settings you’ve made and resets them to
the settings that came with the AirPort Express.
