Take a look at the "max ttl" and "max wins ttl" parameters.

If I do pings to the notebook from other windows cmd: 'c:> ping notebook' it says 'ping to 192.168.10.20 ... request time out'  because the notebook real address is: 192.168.0.10 and not the last taken:192.168.0.20.  If I do pings or access the share through its real IP address, it works perfectly.
