I am using linksys WUSB54G network adapters in a peer to peer network between a XP pro and 98SE computer. The wireless network requires a specified IP address, but my ISP server requires an automatic assigned address. I can do this on the XP but it appears to be mutually exclusive on the 98SE...

All of a sudden, one morning, my 98SE machine disappeared from the LAN (one XP Home machine, one Win 98SE machine). The XP machine and its drives are still available from the 98SE machine so I conclude the cables and ethernet cards are ok. I made no hardware or software changes before...

Hello, I have installed a wireless adapter in a Win 98SE computer. The system recogonizes the card and the card even recognizes when the router is on.

I have a labful (33) of Dell computers, most running 98SE, but 10 running XP. The rest of the building has the same, but over 100 computers added to the 33 I have.
