My new i5 was working for about a week now my AirPort status says No AirPort Card Installed and I am unable to connect.
Please let me know any suggestions .. Thank you.
 
Boot from the restore DVD and see whether the card shows as available. If so, a re-install of OSX will sort out the problem. Otherwise it's back to the Apple Store for a replacement.

You should still be able to ask for a replacement. It isn't that old.

Update:
My AirPort Card was dead and although it has been a little over the 14 days the local Apple Store has agreed to replace the computer for a new one ..
I will be saying phew after it has happened which should be tomorrow.
 
Well done. Sucks that it happened, but at least you have the right outcome.

Thank you for being there for me it really did help .. I will confirm tomorrow .. Thank you again :)
 
Good News :D
I picked up my brand new replacement iMac from the store and it appears to be great .. I am so happy and hugely relieved .. All the people I dealt with at Apple were extremely nice and helpful .. Thank you again for your support !!

P.s.
I think the first one was simply a lemon considering all the problems it had.
