Gary's suggestion for DUN and Winipcfg were relevant, possibly other issues
may also apply.
You might have residual settings from the old hard wired networking
conflicting with your new attempted wireless. Also, if your running a
firewall and/or some AV progs, it would be prudent to make sure they are not
interfering.
If it is no longer connected through hard wire:
Delete all networking in Control Panel > Network, then reinstall for your
adapter, making sure you have configured TCP/IP, DNS, Gateway, and other,
for the new wireless network. Also make sure you are using the correct
protocol, size and related, and security, compared with the other computers,
and router and/or wireless server.
Also make sure your hosts [or lmhosts] file [if using] has allowed
connection or is otherwise not interferring.
Additionally, ensure your workgroup and server name for the target 98 box
are part of the wireless network.
That referenced News Group by Gary, has 4654 headings, rather duanting, so
rather than looking for already supplied answers, post a new query if
necessary, should you choose to go there for answers. You could attempt a
search for related and relevant articles.
