What does "Unknown Problem (iCPW)" mean?
AirPort Extreme 5th Generation reports Unknown Problem (iCPW) even after reboot.
Does anybody know what it means and how to get rid of it?
Thx

bump as my device just started doing the same thing...
Ok, mine is doing this now.
I figured out the problem! The problem is that you have invalid back to the mac credentials. You probably changed your password for your apple id. Once I fixed this, light is green! Life is good.
I have updated my MobileMe information reset the Airport Extreme but the problem is still there. Amber light flashing....Apple is starting to become like Microsoft. Complete lack of support...
I had to use the newest Airport utility 6.1 for it to show me the error.
Airport Utility 5.6 didnt recognize the error, It was indeed a wrong password error but its with iCloud and 5.6 isnt updated to see icloud stuff.
Thank you. This was exactly the solution
Hey, thanks for the info on this. Your comments led me to the fix on my unit. I'm pretty technical, but the resolution had been eluding me. I even took the unit to the local Apple Store before reading these posts and they didn't know what was up. They said send it in for service (under warranty). After returning home, your post set me on the path to recovery. I am using this particular Time Capsule to "Extend" a network in my home. Through your suggestion, I reset the Time Capsule, setting it up as a new network which allowed me to turn off "Back To My Mac". All was well after that and I then proceeded to re-set the unit as an extension of my exisiting network. All is fine now. Problem solved. Thanks for the heads up. This was making me nuts!!
I know I'm late to this, but I am running 10.6.8 and my Airport is at 7.6.4.
As MobileMe no longer exists and iCloud isn't part of 10.6, I don't know what to change to make the blinking amber light turn green.
I deleted my MobileMe user name and PW from the sytem pref, but what else is there to do?
Thanks.
Anybody there?;-)
Have you reset the unit to factory defaults and made sure "Back to My Mac" is disabled (nothing in the box)?
Then set it up fresh.
Had this problem on a Airport Extreme which a friend had given me. Turned out that it had his appleID registered in it and those credentials became invalid. The Airport utility for Windows is a 3rd class citizen and so useless for diagnosing this and didn't have a way of entering the AppleID but the version on the Mac pointed to the problem and I could resolve it easily.
