please help,im trying to connect a windows 98 pc to my wireless network,i have installed the network card and i connect to the network thru the network cards utility and it works fine but when i try to access the internet thru ie it comes up with the page cannot be displayed, the lan settings are set to detect automatically but it doesnt find it still

Is your computer recieving an ip address? Open msdos and type ipconfig. If your ip address is 169.254.xxx.xxx then your computer isnt receiving an IP address. If you are getting on ip address try the following. type ping and the ip address of your wireless router (probably 192.168.1.1). Try this and let me know what happens. -freddy

i got ip as 169.254.112.17 i tried manually setting it as 192.168.1.2 but that doesnt work either. Ive also tried the pin already and i got host unreachable. Basically i have a wireless router and a cable modem is attached to it by ethernet this broadcasts the intnernet to everyone connected to my network, it works fine on my xp home laptop but with this windows 98 pc the software side of the card connects to the network but theres something not right with the ip addesses and such because i cant use the internet.

got it working, was a wep encryption problem, router was set at 128 bit and windows 98 pc wasd set at 64 bit by mistake. works fine now, thanks for the help.
