w/98 Network Setup - What am I doing wrong ?

I'm setting up some w/98 machines. PNP finds the NIC.
I click on "have disk" and point at the drivers. It seems
to be happy.

When it's done I have a machine with working IP/TCP (I can ping and
telnet anywhere) but when I click on "connect to the internet" or
Internet exploere icon instead of getting the one-time screen that
lets me connect via LAN I get a splash screen that tries to connect to
MSN via modem.

What am I doing wrong ?
