Default Wireless networking

Am trying to set up a friend's older laptop with wireless networking. It
came with 2000 installed but someone at Circuit City talked her into buying
XP upgrade and also a Netgear kit with router and adapter card. The upgrade
did not work properly because of older hardware; she did not need the kit
because her ISP DSL already provided a Westell 327W router which does the
wireless routing. I formatted the drive and installed W98SE (not having
anything else to offer). Also installed Linksys sw to try to use a WirelessG
adapter just to see if can get it all working.

I'm getting a 'connected to access point' but 'not finding internet'. Will
this solution work? Are there W98SE specific settings I need to tweak in the
Networking function, Control Panel?

Advice??
