Hi Can't you use DHCP to asign a network range for a group of MAC address? That group of MAC addresses will be your internet pc's and give that network range say its 192.168.0.20 - 192.168.0.50 internet access? Your network is small seeing that you have a network range of 192.168.0. Sorry thats all i can think of for allowing the same workstations to have internet access.
