10.5: An AppleScript to restart an AirPort Base Station
I have two airport stations in my house: an Airport Extreme (named "Airport Bedroom") and an Airport Express (named "Express - Living Room"). When Airport Utility is launched, Airport Bedroom shows at the top of the list, and Express - Living Room is second.
10.5: An AppleScript to restart an AirPort Base Station
I found it necessary to make a couple of adjustments (sorry, don't have a solution to the problem of selecting which base station). If it happens that Airport Utility is already open, and the Manual Setup has already been selected, I had the script fail with an error. Instead of these lines:
I replaced them with these lines:
I also increased the delay after activating the script to delay 10, and the delay after "say 'Restarting Airport'" to 5, which works better with my setup.
Great script! My airport base station seems to disappear from my laptop after a couple of days, making printing wirelessly impossible to the printer attached to the wired computer connected to the ethernet on the base station. Restarting the station fixes it, so I've got the "Restart Airport" script set to automatically run every morning at 2 am.
