98SE and Belkin wireless routers

[Guest Don/Gen]

Anyone using a Belkin wireless-g router with your Win98se? And if so, any

problems?

 

I plan on going broadband and have found a Belkin router (802.11g) with ver.

7000 software that according to specs on the box supports 98se and XP. I

will probably use an ethernet card and hard wire the 98se and go wireless

with my XP home and work laptops.

My Belkin F5D7230 wireless router works fine with all versions of

Windows, including Win98se.

 

I'm not aware of any operating system dependencies in any wireless

router.

 

You don't have to install the router software. You can configure the

router through its web interface.

Steve,

 

Thanks for the input. Not sure if I'll go with the 7230 or spend a bit more

and go with the 9230.

You're welcome, Don. On the Belkin web site, I see prices of $39.99

for 7230 and $99.99 for the 9230. I wonder if the claimed benefits of

MIMO -- increased speed, coverage, and reliability -- justify the

extra cost.
