Want to reformulate the question, following https://dosbox-x.com/wiki/Guide%3AInstalling-Windows-98#_enabling_ne2000_in_your_dosbox_x_config_file, my windows 98 in dosbox-x detect the NE2000 network card. My host Windows 7 address is fixed address: 172.16.0.39/255.255.0.0/172.16.0.1 (ip/mask/gateway) If I put 172.16.0.40/255.255.0.0/172.16.0.1 in Windows 98 TCP/IP configuration cannot do ping to Windows 7 host inside windows 98 "ping 172.16.0.39", what I´m doing wrong? Also, where to load the packet driver, because when windows 98 runs appears the logon to microsoft networks

You do not load a packet driver in Win9x. You use the NE2000 driver that comes with Windows 9x as mentioned on the wiki. The login for microsoft networks is normal, it is using netbeui over tcp/ip, and can in theory be used to share a folder.

As mentioned on the wiki there are 2 paths to get networking setup, slirp or pcap. slirp is typically easier to get up and running, but both options have limitations. You need to check which could work for you. Also be sure to check the networking specific wiki page. https://dosbox-x.com/wiki/Guide%3ASetting-up-networking-in-DOSBox%E2%80%90X

Does not work, I use pcap, I can navigate Internet from inside Windows 98, Doing inside Windows 98 (running under dosbox-x, network in Windows 98 is configured as NE2000 with getting address though DHCP) ping 192.168.1.1 where 192.168.1.1 is the gateway works, ping www.google.com works, ping 192.168.1.151 where 192.168.1.151 is the DHCP-acquired IP inside Windows 98 works, but ping 192.168.1.150 where 192.168.1.150 is the IP address of the Windows 7 machine does NOT work, so there is no communication between Windows 7 and dosbox-x Windows 98
