Tomdean,

I think it should be clear now that it isn't very likely your wireless adapter 
can
be directly controlled from DOS (Free or otherwise).

A workable solution would be to boot Windows or Linux on the PC in question and 
use
their wireless card drivers, then boot FreeDOS in a virtual machine.  The 
virtual machine
simulates a wired Ethernet interface which is no problem to bridge onto the 
PC's wireless
network adapter.

Is there any reason why this solution wouldn't work?

Is there a specific reason why you are trying to boot onto real hardware?

Cordata

The machine will provide a data stream that will not end the world if it

stops.
