The broadcast mask needs to match the way your subnet is defined. You 
originally had the subnet responding to the bottom octet of the IP address 
only but then expanded it to the bottom 2 octets. Therefore the broadcast 
message would have only gone to a small part of your expanded network.
Having said that, you also said the WS-1001 was at 192.168.0.197 and that 
should have responded to the original broadcast address, but I readily 
admit that I only have a rudimentary understanding of these things and 
there could well be some 'magic' that is applied in the router to block 
broadcast messages that don't fly match the network mask.
Anyway - I'm glad it is all back and working for you.
