Windows Forum / Windows 98 / General Topics / March 2007WIreless network on Windows 98 SE
I have installed a D-Link DWL-G520 wireless card in my PC running windows 98SE on an AMD K6 pc. I have a D-link DI-624 router. I have no problems connecting to the router with my Windows XP laptop, but cannot even get the 98 PC tt find the network. I can connect with the laptop with it sitting beside the PC, so the signal is reaching the location. Any suggestions as to how to get onto my network? > I have installed a D-Link DWL-G520 wireless card in my PC running windows > 98SE on an AMD K6 pc. I have a D-link DI-624 router.

First...check to be sure the drivers are installed and there are no conflicts in device manager. If that's OK......if the wireless card came with configuration software...setup your network by using the software that came with the wireless card We have the same problem and have tried what was suggested but with no luck. The available wireless network still doesn't show up The computer containing the wireless card is running on Windows 98 SE while the server is running on Windows XP Professional Any other suggestions  SignatureRalph > > I have installed a D-Link DWL-G520 wireless card in my PC running windows > > 98SE on an AMD K6 pc.

We were using a Linksys Wireless G PCI card that said it was compatible with Windows 98 SE. During installation, the Widnows 98 SE disk was requested and inserted. But upon competion of the installation the Wireless Monitor would open but not respond to any command but exit. We called Linksys help line who was familiar with the problem asking if the wireless monitor was non responsive. We were then told that "the card is compatible with Windows 98 SE but it doen't work"! Although Linksys gave us two models that were supposed to work, we returned the Linksys and purchased a Netgear Wireless PCI card (about $15 cheaper I might add). It was necessary to download drivers that apparently were missing from the software suppliesd with the card, but installation was successful Ralph SignatureRalph > =?Utf-8?B?UmFscGg=?= wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > When you try to connect to another computer, without use of an accesspoint, > you'll have to setup an adhoc or peer-to-peer connection on both sides. |
