Best thing would be to get ethernet to wifi bridge adapter with usb power.
Pending on what mac OS you're using, Open Transport is lot easier, Also AppleShare 3.8.8 from Mac OS 9.2.2 is the best one that works in System 7.5.5

And what's the problem?
What OS, what are you doing and what doesn't work?
And what is meant by "Internet"?
Using public/local FTP, NTP, or, for example, an application from Macintosh Repository to access the application archive will not be a problem. Some people still use BBS.
Internet pages of text or simply sites should also work, but I haven't tried it.
In the profile, I once wrote a message about an application that allows you to access AFP shares even on 7.0.1.

Hello, I have an apple quadra 950, ethernet adapter plugged into the aaui port on the back.
I'm running OS 8.1 (the highest I can get going). I was hoping to download some software, not viewing websites

There shouldn't be any problems.
Out of the box, Mac OS 8.1 should work normally with the network, no additional actions should be required.
If there is no DHCP, then configure the address manually.
What doesn't work out specifically?

Can you elaborate more on this?
In addition, a Ethernet to WiFi bridge may not be what he's looking for. If he wants to download some things off the internet, what's wrong with just using Ethernet alone?
