AEBS Reset button won't work

I tried resetting my AEBS, holding the button for 5 secods, and it won't reset to the factory settings. I tried holding it in, then plugging the unit in and holding for 5 seconds, and still no reset.
I remember I reset it a while back (earlier firmware) with no problems. I'm using the latest AirPort software and latest AEBS firmware.
Anyone else have any problems resetting? And I know it may sound crazy, but am I doing something wrong during the reset? I'd like to think I've done much more complicated things in my life than resetting a piece of hardware:)

Hi. Well, I got it to work. I unplugged all the cables from the back of the unit, so just the power was on. I then held the button for about 7 seconds, and saw the lights come on, then flash, then go back off. When I hooked up my modem again, it was reset to the factory settings.
Funny, I did the same thing, with the cables plugged in, but it wouldn't work. Maybe it won't reset with traffic going through it?
Anyway, I actually didn't have to reset it now, but wanted to just so I could figure out why I couldn't way back when. All is fine now, and it works perfect.
Thanks for that link, I'll take a look at that.

  • Send and reset buttons won't work on contact form

    Hey, I'm using Flash CS3 and ActionScript 2. I've created a simple contact page, inside a movie clip (because I got it fading in and out), I've put the script on the main timeline, so not inside the movie, but the send and reset buttons won't respond all. I've checked the instance names and spellings are correct, here's the script I'm using:
    contact_tween.send_button.onPress = function() {
             if (name eq "" or subject eq "" or message eq "" or email eq "") {
                   stop();
             } else {
             loadVariablesNum("form.php", 0, "POST");
             gotoAndPlay(211);
    contact_tween.reset_button.onPress = function() {
         name="";
         subject="";
         message="";
         email="";
    so, what am I doing wrong? any help appreciated, thanks.
    ps. contact_tween is the name of movie I created to fade the whole contact page in and out.

    ok, i've got the send button working, it was the script on the keyframe that controls the contact form, i copied the code from an older version of the contact file where the send button works. i've checked all the frames, and made sure there aren't any unnecessary instance names, duplicate or otherwise. only thing is the reset button still doesn't work.
    another thing i'm not sure of, do i need to upload the swf and php files to a server, or should i be able to get a test email in my inbox if i test it from my computer without uploading?

  • My home button won't work

    My husband's I-pad has been playing up! His home button won't work, and this keeps happening.

    Try a reset ...
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Beyond that, restore the iPad > iTunes: Restoring iOS software

  • My lock screen button won't work how can I fix this?

    My lock button won't work, every time I click it it won't lock my screen unless I press the button hard enough and or in a weird gesture, how can I fix this where I don't need to struggle locking it?

    Stating the obvious,
    Can you Reset it?
    Have you checked if the Hold switched is not in locked position? (should not see the red mark)

  • I just installed iOS 6.1.5 and now my power button won't work

    After installing iOS 6.1.5 and reinstalling the apps that it deleted from my computer my power button won't work on my iPod touch 4th gen.  Any suggestions?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Play/pause button won't work

    Ipod Classic 80Gb
    Play/pause button won't work 9/10 times.
    Any idea on how to fix that?

    Besides resetting the iPod, have you attempted restoring it? You can do that by clicking the "Restore" button on the the iPod's Summary page in iTunes.
    Assuming that doesn't work, you can check your [warranty status|https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do] to see if you are still covered for hardware repair. I doubt any 30GB iPods are still under warranty, since they were discontinued over two years ago, but you said you got it in March 2009 - did you purchase it used?
    Whether it's under warranty or not, you can always make a Genius Bar appointment at your closest Apple Store and see if they have any other suggestions, free of charge. If it's a hardware problem, they can replace the iPod for you, but there would be a charge to do so if you're out of warranty.

  • Menu and Pause buttons won't work on iPod classic.

    I've had the iPod for a while, long enough that my warranty is over. My problem with the pause button started a few months ago, it would go in spurts of working fine and working on and off. In the past few weeks the menu button has started to not work as well. As of yesterday they have both completely stopped working. I've tried restoring it to factory settings, syncing it over and over, and resetting it (which I can't do now because my menu button won't work). Does anyone have any suggestions? Or is it time for me to get a new iPod...

    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's clickwheel, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damage part for a little less.  Google "iPod repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

  • Vertical scrolling with TrackPoint's middle button won't work on MS Word

    Question:
    I have a T42 ThinkPad and the vertical scrolling with TrackPoint's middle button won't work on MS Word and therefore not in my email either. Big pain in butt as I'm so used to using it. Are there any patches that fix that? Any ideas on why it won't work?

    It's really weird. My suggestion would be that you install the most up-to-date driver by direct downloading or via System Update (if you haven't updated the driver).

  • Ipod power button won't work

    As of late, my power button is acting weird.  Either when you press the power button it won't turn on.. or it will.. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't..
    To get it to turn off if the power button won't work, I'll just drain the battery.  Anybody know anything to help?

    That's a hardware problem.  Apple doesn't repair it.  If there is no sign of abuse (don't try to fix it yourself), they replace it with a refurbished unit.  The fixed-price for non-warranty replacements can be found here.
