TiVo or other DVR unit?, a machine with 2 nics (or set to use 2 IPs), a
repeater, household control device, even a TV?

Do you keep a list of mac addresses or have a scan utility that will report
them? Maybe 2 IPs having the same mac address?

BTW, you said it responded to pings but not how you were addressing it.
BTW, if you don't know where/what it is, how did you find it? Maybe it
responded to a broadcast or something?

Anyway, you are much more likely to figure it out than I so these thoughts
are really just food for your thoughts. :)
