Cannot see all Basestations in Airport Admin Util

I decided to dust off my Snow BaseStation and use it as a seperate
network, just for music.

My Set-up:
2 Airport Exterme BS in WDS mode, on Ch 11.
1 Snow BS on CH 5

Before I setup the Snow, I could see my other 2 Basestations in my
Airport Admin Utility.

I Set up the Snow on a different channel, different name and such, and I
can see it just fine.

After the setup, I can't see the other Basestations.  I can connect to
hte network, I can access network assets (Internet, other computers),
but I just can't see the BS's when doing a rescan.

If I manually enter the Basestation addresses I can see them, one at a
time.

I can use a different computer to view either Basestation by joining the
network, then selecting rescan, but not on the computer I used to setup
the Snow.

Really confusing, any help much appreciated,

I have only one AEBS and I can't see it at all in the Airport Admin
Utility unless I click on the 'Other' button, in which case it is
immediately found and by entering its password I can access all of its
settings. (Rescan fails to find it.)

Don't know if this is related to your problem at all, but have you tried
clicking on the 'Other' button?

Thanks of rthe reply.  I managed to solve the problem.  I forgot a
cardinal rule... When all else fails, RESET!

I don't understand why a Reset should help a problem like this, but for
some reason it did.

Thanks anyway,
