So, dumb, de dumb dumb... the router is not putting out a wireless
signal...?
If the wired eMac is connected, and it has an airport card, then it
can be set up to retransmit that signal - creating a network - that
your MacBook can connect to.
That could test whether or not the MacBook is part of the problem.
If the eMac has wireless reception, and we know that it can connect
with ethernet, then can it connect wirelessly? Disconnect its wired
connection and see if it can find the modem/router wirelessly.
