tomdean,

Yes, you need a packet driver.   However I'm not sure about running a wireless 
card under DOS - packet
drivers are typically not capable of configuring wireless security.  They 
normally operate with a wired ethernet
port.  Others will know more about this than I.

Is there a reason you are running on real hardware compared to a virtual 
machine?

Packet drivers can be found at one of two places:

1) www.crynwr.com - many of these are open source.
2)  The web site of whoever makes the Ethernet interface of your PC.  This 
driver will likely be
closed source.

What applications are you trying to run?    If they are basic FTP, Telnet, etc. 
you may want to look
into mTCP as well.

I want to install WATTCP on my FreeDOS system.

I have a Linksys Wireless-G Notebook Adapter Model WPC54G Ver. 3.1

I have wat2001b.zip.  I think I need a packet driver.  Correct?

Where may I find a driver for FreeDOS?  Google returns too many results
to be meaningful.
