[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1331885, member: 8287"] If it never got an IP it would be easier to troubleshoot, but since it does 25' away, the router and the iMac are both working for sure. Call Apple and tell them and see what happens. Do you have any other computer in the house with WiFi? Does it at that 80' get an IP and good WiFi? Please do report back. It really sounds like a signal strength issue. Real fast, what encryption you using on your WiFi? I hope it's not WEP!! WEP is easily hacked and troublesome with some macs. [/QUOTE]
