Yes - this is a common problem. I experienced the error after making configuration changes to my router (Netgear Nighthawk). My Airport Express no longer appeared on my network and the Airport Utility reported no AEs on my home network. So I went down the path of resetting (soft, hard and factory) the AE. Each time, I got this error. Interestingly the light on the AE was green, so I knew it was on the network, but just wasn't showing up on the Airport Utility or on my Apple TV (I use the AE for audio output for my projection screen). In the end, I reasoned that the router might be the problem because the AE was definitely configured correctly but was not being 'seen' on the home network. I restarted the router and a new IP address was assigned to the AE and it appeared on the Airport utility and on the Apple TV. Happiness.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes and you can goggle for other opinions, but I resolved it by using my iPhone to create the extension to my network. Use the Settings, Wi-Fi, and then you’ll see the device name pop up under ‘Choose A Network’. Select it and complete the data entry. Make sure to select extend existing network if desired, as it may not be the default on the network type drop down list. It was easy and fast to connect.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I reset several times without success. My IT expert had to reset a switch that was inside the network relative to the airport. That fixed it and things went well after the next reset. Good luck.
