[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 979242, member: 8287"] The Connection Sharing really should work. I have done it here on every Mac in the house from old to new. There has to be something wrong somewhere but in reading what you posted, I can't see what is going on. Also the very fact you have to take the Mac Pro right next to the router to even get a signal shows something is wrong. It might be the AE Card. Did you buy it new or used or did it come installed in the mac Pro? I thought I read you put it in yourself but I can't find it. Tired I guess. I am sure you have it in right as it would not even show up if it was not installed correctly and the Antenna is one cable. Can you outline the exact steps you are taking setting up Internet Connection Sharing? I know you have Tiger 10.4 on both systems but I know tiger very well and have it installed on my older G4 with standard Airport card. I would love to help you if I can. If that Powermac G4 can surf the net without an issue out there, you should be able to share the connection to the Mac Pro. [/QUOTE]
