Are you sure that there isn't another dhcp server running on the

If you are connecting through an AP that also had DHCP available then it is
possible that the IP address has been given by the AP and not by your DHCP
server running on your desktop. I had this issue and found that I had forgotten
to switch off the dhcp server in the AP config. Worth checking I would think.
Any of the little routers can do that, doesn't have to be wireless. I
got caught by Billions one or twice: fortunately, they default to
addresses I don't use at home.
