(it was called an "Intel G5" when I purchased it 4 years ago)
This is what happens or how things are described to you when you order a Mac through an online musical instrument retailer, namely, Sweetwater Sound.
They also described it as a G5 with Intel chips....so, now that this is a little more clear......(?)
I work on PC's all day. I come home to a Mac to work on music in Logic, Live, etc...

OK then - going through several walls and spanning a few rooms is going to make a wireless connection very difficult (or near impossible)?
Thank you for the information.

We're not remembering someting correctly, never was an Intel G5... mutually exclusive... G5s were IBM CPUs. 🙂

I DO NOT have an AirPort/WiFi card installed.
4 years ago you should, perhaps it's dead?
Thick Walls are a problem for Wifi.
