DOS did networking a lot better with ISA and some PCI NICS. WiFi came after DOS was no longer being developed. There might be some 900MHz WaveLAN things that work for DOS if the point is to make a machine connected wirelessly.
If the machine has serial you might consider a Wifi232[0] or one of the Pi Zero W[1][2] based options.
