Nov 25, 2013 5:02 AM in response to bcmeltonby FerdRod,I am in the same boat. I have a older Airport Express in my office that supports this part of my house. Other parts of the house are supported by an Airport Extreme. I just upgraded the firmware in my Exteme and it works fine, but at the same time Airport Utility 5.6, which I'd kept around just to service my older Express, no longer works. I can't even open the program! My Express is still shining green but it looks like I won't be able to service or restart it in the future. Any suggestions?
I also have no Macs running any previous OSs and no Windows machines.

Meh, just throw that perfectly good device in the trash and give us another $100. You have another $100 bucks for poor old nuncle Apple don't you? Come on don't be stingy, give up that cash for your poor old rotten nuncle Apple.
Rotten compainies are thrown in the trash too.
Yeah it's like that.

Chances are, you have friend who has one of the these devices who could spend the 5 minutes with you that you might need in the event that you needed to administer the older Express.
If that is not possible, then you are probably stuck if the Express needs some attention.
