I had the amber flashing light when setting up my Airport Express earlier (to add to my WiFi network to stream music via AirTunes to my stereo) and resolved it through:
- connecting the AE via ethernet cable and setting up using AirPort Base Station Agent on my PC
- Turning off the AE, my fibre modem and Wireless hub
- Turning on the fibre modem and waiting for it to come back online
- Turning on the wireless hub and waiting for it to come back online
- Then turning on the AE
That did the trick
