Connecting laptop to wireless Hub - help

I have a BT wireless router and have a laptop running Win 98SE with a 802.11g network card. I can connect fine to the wireless hub and everything indicates I am connected.

However how do I connect to the internet? On my more modern laptop running Win XP I just click on the internet explorer blue icon and it automatically connects to the internet. No problems.

On the Win 98 laptop it tries to connect to a dial up line - There seem to be no option to connect wirelessly. I have disabled the dial up line but my laptop seems to think the only way it can connect is via a standard modem so Dial up networking is no good.
Anybody help out there? confused:
