no you don't.
at the top bar on the right side near the clock, there should be an airport symbol which looks like curved lines getting progressively larger. right click (control+click) on it and go to join network. find yours, enter your password and there you go.

That's not what he's asking. A Mac Pro, not Macbook Pro. With a Mac Pro you need a wireless card or that will pick up his wireless signal or a card that you can plug in hard wire.
