You need to figure what win98 does when talking to the cable modem itself.
How is the modem connected, did you have to install any win98 software, is
it using dhcp etc etc.
Linux itself is happy with asymmetric routing. Set up the machine so
that both card and dialup have the same IP address. Check you can get the
ppp dialin part working. Once that is connecting and authenticating use
that as your routes (ie delete routes to the ethernet->cablemodem) and
point them all at the dialup
