Anyone having trouble with connecting their PB to a wireless access point/router?

All the intel based stuff is connecting fine to this wireless router, but the Apple doesn't even see a signal or an SSID.

Thanks for any help you can give,

What happens when you create a computer to computer network with the Mac? Do the other machines see it?

Did you plug the antenna in?

I replaced my Titanium PB 15' w/regular 802.11b w/a AI PB 15 w/Extreme and zap- my connect ion w/ my Netgear router for DSL and printing would not work. In my case the connection was fixed by doing a firmware upgrade w/the Netgear router and/or enabling internet sharing (did both; not sure which did the trick!). good luck!

Like Detrius said, did you plug the antenna in. Also make sure the airport card is snapped in 100%. I put mine in and I though I had itin all the way, I thought it snapped in, but it wouldnt work at all. I checked it again and pushed it in REAL hard and it snapped in perfect. After that everything works great.
