Windows ME/98 workgroup

[IYOK]

I've purchased a new computer to add to a little workgroup I have at home. The new computer has win me. I was trying to add the new computer to the workgroup created. After everything is finished, I reboot and the windows me computer can't see the other win98 computers.
Now, I tried to recreate the workgroup and this time the windows 98 offered to create a disk to install on all other win95/98 to setup the workgroup. I did that and now none of the computers see each other.

The workgroup names are the same
Both have ips on the same subnet
And printing and file sharing has
been enabled.

The hub for the workgroup has been
set for normal, NOT Uplink.
