Joaquim Posted June 10, 2021 Author Posted June 10, 2021 honestly i don't know do it.. but, true, is the best for test the hardware
pangoomis Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) I see that you've bought a wifi card that I recommended. It's weird that you don't have any networks listed. As others said, try the new wifi card using Windows 2000 or XP and see if the networks show up there. You can also try Debian from the Linux side of things. The "File is not installed" text in Device Manager is normal, I have it as well and Wi-Fi works fine regardless. Try also this older drivers for Windows 9x and see if the networks show up in Odyssey, maybe the latest one doesn't work with all Atheros cards... Also, have you connected the antennas to the WiFi card? Driver.zip Edited June 11, 2021 by MrMateczko

Driver.zip 432.43 kB · 2 downloads maybe isn't compatible with WPA codification or something. that why i'm trying buy these one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254506467561?hash=item3b41c480e9:g:S94AAOxy-WxTFCr8 from these suggestion: https://cloakedthargoid.wordpress.com/win9x-wpa2/ yes i try almost everything(except on W2K.. i must create a double boot and i don't know do it). and from ArcticFoxie: " Upon further reading on my end, WPA and WPA2 is very difficult on 98/98SE. I could probably get it to work if it were my equipment. But guiding this process online is going to be far too time-consuming given the complexity level of the articles found via a Google-search on the topic." so i prefare buy the https://www.ebay.com/itm/254506467561?hash=item3b41c480e9:g:S94AAOxy-WxTFCr8 but i need a confirmation, for have sure that i can buy it MrMateczko: you gived me a suggestion... wasn't the solution, but you tryied... and the price was low... so... that's ok... thanks anyway at least the Windows 98 is working on a Windows XP laptop hehehehe and all drivers are installed... well except the wireless... and the modem driver seems strange, even installed without a warning or something... maybe these wireless card will resolve my problem. thanks to all for all

MERCURY127 Posted June 14, 2021 Posted June 14, 2021 19 hours ago, Joaquim said: maybe isn't compatible with WPA codification or something. WPA/WPA2 is not related with HW and low layer drivers. for work with WPA/WPA2 u need just good Wireless Supplicant, as Odyssey. with Odyssey's help i have succesfully connect to my router with WPA2-AES and that even work with absolute alien's for 9x device - USB dongle on RT2870. it means, that here can not be problems with WPA if ur HW is working properly. so please, check your hardware in a normal operating system, and only then think about buying new card.
Joaquim Posted August 27, 2021 Author Posted August 27, 2021 i have another wireless pci: Compatible ID: pci\ven_8086&dev_1043&rev_04 Hardware ID: pci\ven_8086&dev_1043&subsys_25228086&rev_04 from the search seems to be Intel(R) PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B.... so i found these download: https://www.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=1364314 but freezes the laptop when install it and i get '!' on driver installed. please i need more help for get it :(
pangoomis Posted August 30, 2021 Posted August 30, 2021 That's a second WiFi card you've tried that should work in 98SE (there are drivers for them for 98SE), yet it doesn't for you. I am feeling this might be laptop's fault and not 98SE. It would be great if you could test those WiFi card on a different laptop with a MiniPCI slot, this way we could check if it's the laptop fault, or the cards fault. If you're looking for a laptop with good 98SE compatibility, look for an Intel 855 chipset.
Joaquim Posted July 12, 2022 Author Posted July 12, 2022 can anyone restore the link for audio and video driver please?

jumper Posted August 17, 2024 Posted August 17, 2024 Win95? If not, remove all drivers in Safe Mode and redetect. PCI-12xx is supported in others. Firewire requires SE+.
