Hi, I'm new here, but one thing that I found that worked was to put my LAN on a seperate subnet. I put what should have been an internal class c subnet to a class b. It fixed the packet colissions I was having. My cable company had the same setup where they only allowed one ip that was to be unshared and I was to purchase each aditional ip. efore I got a router that did it all for me, to simplify my life. I had 2 nics in my server and shared the connection from it to a hub and then the other boxes all set manually on the class c range IPs w/ the class b subnet. It was the only thing I found that worked to both have internet and see each other. With the internal on the same subnet as teh external, I was only ale to see the internal lan from my workstations. That was just my experience, but I hope it helps.
