Stuck reset button

The reset button is stuck in the "in" position on my airport extreme. How do I unstick the button?

Be sure to disconnect the AirPort Extreme from power first, and then, try using a drop or two of isopropyl (aka rubbing) alcohol on a Q-tip to attempt to dislodge the stuck reset button. Use 70% or higher (if available). You may have to do this a few times. Be sure that the alcohol fully evaporates before applying power to the base station.


If this does not "unstick" the button, then you will need to bring the base station to your local Apple Store as it does not have any user serviceable parts.
