I just moved and my cable modem is on the first floor but
my PC is on the 4th floor. I have windows 98 and I
purchased d-link wireless adapter so I can connect through
my router but it doesn't work with windows 98. I need to
have windows 98se or newer. Is there a way to download
drivers that will allow me to use 98 or what do I need to
do? Thank you very much.

I'm not aware of any differences between 98 and 98se that would affect
a network adapter. Have you tried it on 98se? What model is the
wireless adapter? You should be able to find drivers for it at
