Q: What works with Mountain Lion?  AirPort Utility 5.6 will not install on Mountain Lion.

What gives?  The AirPort Utility 5.6 wil not load on a computer running Mountain Lion.  Attempted both on an iMac and Macbook.

A:

That is correct, the 5.6 version of the AirPort Utility will not install under Mountain Lion ... but it will run on it once installed. One option is to use a utility, like Pacifist, to extract and "install" the utility into the Utilities folder.
