I have a Microsoft wifi card but, it only supports WEP. I might just lower my security to WEP but, was curious about other laptop wifi cards that have 98 support. does any one they use have one or know of any?

I use a Belkin F5D7000 - it has WPA-PSK security.

That card is RTL8185 based and there are lots of cheap mini PCI cards available on ebay ! I now know what my laptop will get :3
Are there any Win98 compatible wifi setups that support WPA2 ? I tested one D-link USB thing long ago but I cannot remember whether it did or did not support WPA2...

aaaww the belkin is for desktops only. So i guess look for "RTL8185" based solutions then.
also what software do you use to manage wifi connections. i might guess the windows software will not support a non Microsoft wifi card?
EDIT: snagged one on ebay for 3 bucks USD shipped and got some 98se inf drivers.

I have finally got my laptop to use non Broadcom card and I have been trying to get Atheros AR5005G working, but I have had no luck at all. INF says 9x is supported but no driver has the 9x specific file, and none got the client program to go with the card.
I now have my eyes on a Ralink 2561F based card and Intel 2200BG (I will try out some Lenovo driver that got posted a little ago !

Success with Ralink RA2560F !
I used the RA2500 mPCI/PCI driver from Ralink site, it comes with the client and works nicely !
It understands what WPA2 is but cannot connect to it though... so that means I will change my Wifi settings a bit at home.
I could not get Intel 2200BG or Atheros AR5005G to work
