Missing adapter in Win IP

I am trying to install a D-Link DWL G650 wireless cardbus
adatper to a Compaq Presario notebook running Win98SE, to
connect with a D-Link Wirless router. When the card is
inserted into the PCMCIA slot, the adapter shows up in
Device manager, but it is missing from Win IP when I run
winipconfig, and although the card utility shows good
signal strength, I am unable to connect to the net.
Is there a fix for this?

Go to Control Panel | Network and see if there's a "TCP/IP->DWL G650"
entry. If there isn't, click Add | Protocol | Add | Microsoft |
TCP/IP to create it.

You might need to increase the maximum number of TCP/IP bindings, as
shown here:

I have a similar problem with a D-Link DFE-530TX+ adapter on Windows98. The device manager shows the adapter is working correctly but I don't see the adapter in winipcfg. I tried Steve Winograd's suggestions but they did not work for me. Anything else that could be wrong with my installation?
