Windows 98 will detect that a card has been plugged in. Whether or not it can USE it depends on whether the card has Windows 98 drivers available, and if you have installed them correctly. Most wireless A, B, and G cards have Windows 98 drivers, but very few N cards do.

What is Wireless LAN driver?
A wireless LAN driver is a Windows file or set of files that tells the computer how to communicate with the wireless hardware inside of it. It may also come with a utility that aids in connection to wireless networks. If you are looking for a particular wireless driver, you can google the maker and model of your wireless card and you should be able to download it. (That is supposing you have an alternate way of connecting to the internet, otherwise use a computer that is and put the driver on a jumpdrive/memory stick.)
