Well ...
Like Glend said migrate all those win98 station to W2k is a solution...
althought it doesn't solve the problem but work around it! it more costly but
win98 never been a very stable os (for my part)
I would change on one station the network card with a brand new one from a
known compagny such as 3Com using the latest driver.
verify the speed and the setting of the card.
it could be a problem from your network equipment too. try monitoring you hub
or switch port if you can.
is all win98 are connected on the same hardware?
Can you ping the station once you think have lost you connection?
Is the workstation is still working locally?

Frankly, I have had the same problem, and the only thing I have found in
common is HP LaserJet Print Drivers
Sounds waaay off base, and one can't really live without HP LaserJet
drivers, right?
So I've replaced almost all of them with Win2K.
Sorry I can't be of much help,

machines...
Sorry for the OT but I don't know of any 98 forums, and there is a lot =
of knowledge here.
I currently have a problem with a number of Windows 98 PC's (not all), =
where what seems to be randomly, disconnects the user from the network.
The user is working fine one minute then will suddenly completely lose =
access to the network, and the only way to get it working again is to =
reboot the PC.
All the PC's affected are newly rebuilt ones running Windows 98 SE, on a =
range of hardware and NIC's. It didn't occur prior to the rebuild so it =
is clear that it is something to do with the way it has been setup, but =
what? They are a standard build, using the latest drivers.
Any ideas what could be causing this?
Thanks for any help.
Steve
