I am trying to set up a wireless network in my home. One
of my computers is running on windows 98. The wifi
device i am trying to hookup needs windows 98se. If I
download the service pac will I be all set or do I need a
CD version of 98se to continue?

There's no Win 98se download and no service pack that can do the
upgrade. It's only available from a CD.

It might be easier to get a wireless adapter that works on original 98
than to find a 98se upgrade CD. I've used these models successfully
on original 98, and there are probably others:

Netgear MA101
Netgear MA401
Microsoft MN-520
