No, it can't. FreeDOS needs a dedicated DOS packet driver to work. > If not, is it possible to get a Trendnet > tew-424ub usb wireless network adapter working in Freedos? Again, no. Besides the fact that there is no available packet driver for any WiFi cards, I do not think there is currently a way to use an USB network card in FreeDOS. If your target is to connect FreeDOS via WiFi, you will probably have to buy a WiFi access-point, which will barely "translates" WiFi to classic, wired ethernet. Then, you will be able to connect FreeDOS to that access-point using any supported network card. If you want simply make a bridge between a WiFi network and a wired network, then FreeDOS will not be of any value to you. Any access-point will do that (optionally, you can try to make it with a Linux distro, but I guess you will have to buy a PCI WiFi card then, as USB WiFi network cards have very poor support... or use the Linux ndiswrapper).
