Change the last octet to anything else in the 129-254 range and it should work.
191.168.001.128
AND 255.255.255.128
is: 191.168.001.128 for network part
and: 000.000.000.000 for host part (broadcast)
i.e., using 129 gives:
191.168.001.129
AND 255.255.255.128
is: 191.168.001.128 for network part
and: 000.000.000.001 for host part
Host 0 and host -1 (all binary ones in host part) are old-style and new-style
*broadcast* addresses respectively.
