I was having a similar type of problems and it was just a matter of telling my computer to open a specific port. I don't remember which one, but check out:

Are you connecting through your brothers computer to the internet? If so you will need to forward port 4993 {tcp} to your computer. If you are connected directly check your firewall settings, make sure port 4993 is open.

IIRC Win98 had no easy proxy feature inbuilt, so people used software like Wingate. Is that what you are doing? If so the advice in the thread linked to earlier is not quite what you want, but post more about your situation we'll see.
