This is a PowerPC iMac (G3, G4, or G5) running Mac OS X Tiger (10.4.11)? Does it use an Apple AirPort card (internal) for wireless, or are you using a third-party adapter of some type?

Use Software Update to update your OS to last version of Tiger. Install all the other updates that goes along w/it.

System Preferences>Network
Click the Assist Me button.
In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.
