Get rid of the Superscope. Run a separate scope for each subnet. Do some
research on the purpose of a Superscope and you will find they are not for
what you are doing. They make all the scopes within them behave as a single
scope. I believe they are also used when multiple subnets run on the same
logical "wire" although I am not that familiar with doing it that way and
consider it a bad idea in the first place.
