Apple posts AirPort Base Station Update 2008-001

I just want my new Airport Extreme to not drop my connection 2-3 times per day. Right now, it's sitting collecting dust while my old Extreme runs my wireless network.

I'm having problems with my internet now I've updated. i now it is only to do with the hardware, but my internet IS dropping its connection every few minutes. its seriously annoying and i never had this problem before the update. Does anyone know how to remove an update? i do own TC so could i revert my computer back to a certain date?

Totally screwed my Time Capsule connection... fixed by downgrading to the Airport Utility that came on Time Capsule installation CD.

For everyone having a problem with their macbook's not finding the airport when it wakes up, try unhiding your SSID.
I was having this problem forever and I just unhid the SSID and no it finds the base station immediately after waking.

There's no point in hiding the SSID because anyone with a wi-fi sniffer can easily see it, and if you're using WPA then it doesn't matter who sees your network name.

Thats right.
Its Airport Utility software version 5.3.1, NOT any kind of firmware. (Not that its available right now)
It must be to facilitate USB disks on the network, which sort of work, but not really....I was hoping to run a small USB disk as a backup off the Base Station, but no luck yet - 'connection failed'.....

People—this update won't make any difference to connection stability, AirDisk, AirTunes, or anything like that. It's an update for the Airport software which lives on your Mac and manages the base stations. It's *not* a firmware update.

Firmware version 7.2.1.
Airport Base Station Extreme.

Airport Utility said Update available, but when it went to software update, no such update exists.
This at 1.40 am Pacific Time Zone.
Cant find any updates on the Apple site.

I have never had any serious problems with Apple equipment - I did have an issue with an airport express recently, however and have just replaced it with the Extreme Base Station, which is working well and very fast with one Macbook Pro, two iBooks, and one Clamshell iBook.

I've fired up software update, says everything is A-OK and no updates available. Opening Airport Utility informs me that there's an update, and I should hit 'OK' to be taken to Software Update to download the new software. Of course, Software Update then says everything is peachy-keen. Sounds to me like there were issues, and the update got pulled. Something server-side that the individual apps talk to (not Software Update, obviously) just hasn't been updated to not trigger the update warning.

That's odd, I just fired up Software Update and it says that all my software is up to date. So then I opened up Airport Utility, which informed me that a new version of Airport Utility is available. I hit update, which quits out of the utility, fires up Software Update, which of course tells me that all my software is up to date.

Anyone else experiencing this or have I lost my mind?

OMG, just as soon as I started using wide-area bonjour they removed it >_<

sucks
