Apple doesn't provide the new AirPort Utility as a download since it's provided on the installation CD that comes with the new 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station. Have you tried contacting Apple for a replacement CD?
As an option, here's a workaround...
- Download the AirPort Base Station Update 2007-001 file from: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportbasestationupdate2007001formac.htm l
- Double-click AirPortBaseStationUpdate2007001.dmg to mount and display it's contents.
- From the AirPortUtilityUpdate window, right-click on "AirPortBaseStationUpdate2007001.mpkg."
- Select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up menu.
- In the "AirPortBaseStationUpdate2007001.mpkg window, double-click on the "Contents" folder to open it.
- In the "Contents" window, double-click on the "Packages" folder to open it.
- Right-click on "AirPortUtility.pkg."
- Select "Show Package Contents" from the pop-up menu.
- In the "AirPortUtility.pkg window, double-click on the "Contents" folder to open it.
- Double-click on "Archive.pax.gz." This will create a new folder on your Desktop, named "Applications." The AirPort Utility will be inside this new folder. You can copy or move it to your Applications folder.
