you can't use a wireless adapter card directly on the older machine. you will have to get a wireless access point and connect it to the hub. your Win98 system will have to connect using wire to the hub.

I have a new, wireless enabled (802.11b) laptop and router. I'd like to use my old desktop as a print server, but all the wireless adapter cards I find seem to require Windows 98 SE, while my desktop is running the original Win98. Is there something not included in Win98 first edition that means I won't be able to buy a network adapter, or can someone recommend a product? The computer is a HP Pavilion from 1999.
