What is the brand and model of your modem? What is the brand and model of your router?

And, what specifically is the problem you are experiencing?

Try disabling ALL the MAC filtering and encryption on the router and see if you can get all the workstations connected. If you use WPA or WPA2, you shouldn't have an issue that requires MAC filtering anyway, it just makes it harder for you to use your own network.
