AirPort Utility requires your Base Station password in order to access the settings on your your AirPort router.

Is is possible that you are trying to use your Wireless Network password instead of the Base Station password?

If yes, please use the Base Station password for your AirPort router to access its settings using AirPort Utility.

Yes, I understood there are different passwords. I've entered the correct one. It will open up to nothing though. It accecpts my password but won't go any farther, there is no edit screen.

Unfortunately, I am not able to duplicate the error that you are reporting to arrive at a solution.

Just to double check, you are trying to use AirPort Utility to access the settings of a new or recent version of an Apple AirPort router, correct?

The iOS version of AirPort Utility will not allow access to 3rd party routers, or to an older version of the Apple AirPort router.
