I had a similar problem.  I'm sure there's a more graceful answer 
than the one I've come up with, but I just added the ip addresses of 
my clients (just a few, fortunately) to the /etc/hosts file.  

My system was connecting to my isp everytime there was a DNS 
request, even if the address was local to my network.  The above fix 
handled it.  There's probably a smarter way to get this to work, but 
for a few stations, the above worked for me.
