I still have a ThinkPad 240, which is loaded with W98 and I prefer to carry
because this notebook is much lighter than my current ThinkPad, and still
does many things. However, it is my belief that the 240 cannot take advantage
of Wi-Fi environments here and there because W98 does not support it, even if
the 240 had an Internet card in its PC card slot.

Does anyone know if there is a way to download files or drivers (whatever)
to make W98 able to connect to the Internet using a Wi-Fi card, or some other
device, in the card slot?

Thanks
I don't know what age a Thinkpad 240 exactly is and is able to do.
But I have a Toshiba Satellite 2710XDVD bought in middle 2000 with 128MB
RAM and a 500MHz P3 CPU running MicroSoft Windows 98SE using WiFi
without any problem.

For quite a number of years a Sweex Wireless PCMCIA Card LC500020 is
installed that needs at least Windows 98SE but a SiteCom Wireless
Network Adapter WL-012 connected to USB worked perfect before this.

For your info, the PCMCIA card worked only after selecting
"Cardbus/16bit" in the Toshiba bios iso "Auto Select" or PCIC
Compatible" whatever that all means.

Maybe you just need Windows 98SE instead and hardware plus driver that
accepts that O/S.
