Do you have an IP address and router address in your Network Preferences under the system preferences? If so, do you have the wireless router set up correctly? I.e., are you filtering MAC addresses and have not entered your G4's MAC address in the router? are you enabling DHCP? are you limiting certain clients (some routers can be set to accept only 802.11b or 802.11g or both (also 802.11a)?
