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.
