[X4U] Airport upgrade troubles

[Xavier Noria]

There are always problems here updating the Airport Extreme base 
station.

Even with the PowerBook put in front of the station, but the update 
wizard says it cannot communicate with the base station (which it 
founds at least) and the Airport Admin Utility even does not list the 
station. If I try to get to it using "Other" it says it cannot read the 
configuration file.

On the other hand, the wireless have always worked fine, for instance 
right now.

Does anybody else's station have this same issue? Do you know which 
could be the cause or any workaround?
