Where is the modem and where do their cable go to. If your router is the only thing plugged in the modem and their cables aren't plugged in your switch they can't get to the internet. You should be able to limit the number of users, turn off DHCP and use fixed IP's and only allow the ones you assign. The specifics should be in the router manual..
Another solution might be a simple locking cabinet.
Hi there, The Router has a built-in ADSL modem and firewall... an all in one package.

I see what ya mean about the IP addresses.... does this mean I would have to goto each users pc give them an IP unique to that pc?... how would i do this?
