Hi my PC is running windows 98SE. I've noticed all the wirless routers that i've checked require winXP. Also, Nintendo's Wi-fi USB adapter for the DS also requires XP. Is there any way to go wireless with windows 98SE? Or do i need a new operating system?
 
All the wireless NICs I've bought up till now had drivers for SE.
May be because you are getting newer devices.

No, i don't mean Network cards you put into your Pc, i mean the Wirless Routers you plug your DSL line into. Form what i understand you have a Wirless Router and then the adpaters you plug into the USB to recive the wirless signal. Form what i've seen at the stores they all have XP listed as a requirement.

Was wondering if there are any 98 options out the or if i have to upgrade to XP to have a wirless network
