Q: Problems with AirPort Extreme Firmware update 7.6.3 and Unknown Problem (6rEr) with flashing yellow (amber) light

Just installed AirPort Extreme Firmware update 7.6.3 and get Unknown Problem (6rEr) with flashing yellow (amber) light. The AirPort Utility tries to check for a software update fix, but there is none and it goes in circles trying to self-fix. Everything was working JUST FINE prior to the firmware update.

 

How do I solve this? Can I revert/install the 7.6.2 firmware until Apple resolves this? Any recommended fixes?

 

For reference, I am running OS 10.6.8 and Airport Utility 5.6.1 on an iMac

Airport Extreme, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
