The secret 5.0.2 upgrade and more
Authored by: nevyn on Sep 24, '03 03:44:45PM

I just had this problem myself! How cool.

The problem is that the MR814v2's original firmware is incompatible with Airport Extreme. It works with ordinary Airport. 5.0.1 fixes this, just do a firmware upgrade.

If you're unable to do the firmware upgrade because of it saying it's the wrong version of the file, do a hard reset on the switch on the back of the unit. I had to do that... To hard-reset, hold the reset button down for ten seconds! Until the lamp starts to blink.

On a further note, there actually is a 5.0.2 firmware upgrade! I got it from tech support, but it's not available from the site. Which I find very strange! I'll throw it onto my webserver at http://alastor.mine.nu/files/mr814v2firmware502.img
