I use an airport express to extend my network. It stopped working and will not turn green. I have rebooted it and pressed the reset button, but it still will not turn green. The airport utility finds it, but won't turn green.
OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
The network preferences may be corrupted. I just went through this myself ..
Quit AirPort Utility if it's open.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Click Go then move all the files in the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac.
Reset the base statation intended for extending Wi-Fi.
Then launch AirPort Utility. Give it a few minutes to recognize the extended base station.
Your Mac will generate a new SystemConfiguration folder for you.
If that doesn't help, follow the instructions here > Wi-Fi base stations: Setting up and configuring an extended wireless network
BTW, I noticed that your profile indicates your Mac is running v10.9.2. If that is correct, update your software.
Open System Preferences > App Store > Check Now
Thanks for such a quick response. I tried rebooting my base station, and it the airport express is now working!! I will keep this response for future reference. Cheers!
