I have my G5 Dual 1.8; 10.3.7 (no Airport card) hooked up to Airport 
Extreme via ethernet and my son's iMac links up via his Airport card. 
He gets the Airport menu bar item and I end up with nothing to initiate 
a connection or show status. There is no button in Network/Airport to 
check. As I'm linked directly to the base station you'd think I'd be 
able to have the status menu as well. Seems to be a bit of a bug. Any 
suggestions? Thanks.
