Lucent Wavelan PCMCIA cards should have DOS drivers, and there are ISA to
PCMCIA cards out there.

Subject: 802.11b ISA?
For fun, I'd like to mix old with
slightly-less-old and put an 802.11
wireless card in my old Compaq 386 luggable. Does anyone know if
there is a card that is both ISA and has DOS drivers? Doing WEP would
be a bonus, 128-bit WEP more so. If no WEP, I can set up a separate
AP for it but it would be nice to take it on the road (being a
"portable" and all.)
The Cisco AIR-ISA34x series seem to fit the bill. One chart I found:
http://www.kmj.com/cisco/340a.html
...suggests that the ISA342 will do 128-bit WEP. so maybe that is the
one to find.
Any other ideas/suggestions/experience?
