Dell Dock TB16 - NetBIOS over Tcpip Always Disabled

I can't see how to enable the NetBIOS over Tcpip for the TB16 USB NIC.

I tried this and set it to 1-Enabled but it is still off. 

"NetbiosOptions"=dword:0 (to use DHCP settings)
"NetbiosOptions"=dword:1 (to enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP)
"NetbiosOptions"=dword:2 (to disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP)

wmic nicconfig get caption,index,TcpipNetbiosOptions

This returns "index number" (plug this into the next command):
wmic nicconfig where index="index number" call SetTcpipNetbios 1

 I have been changing with the wmic nicconfig DOS commands. It changes the same TcpipNetbiosOptions value but the NetBIOS over Tcpip property still says "No" on the TB16 USB Network Adapter. I updated the drivers also but it seems like a bug. It’s kinda cool, I can browse the laptop by name and not by IP address, never seen that before. :)

The NetBIOS over Tcpip property status for the Intel Network Adapter in the laptop changes when you change the TcpipNetbiosOptions but the TB16 USB Network Adapter seems to ignore any of the settings and NetBIOS over Tcpip is always off. I can just use the Intel Network Adapter in the laptop but then the dock is not as cool.
