I remember reading that this contrib also included a mac address blocker as well
http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/index.php?subdir=aloveless%2Fcontribs%2Fipblock_inet&sortby=name

try it out and see how it goes, if that lets you down install dansguardian, you can restrict acording to mac addresses with that, here's the link

hope that helps
cheers

Just remember it's pretty easy to spoof a MAC address, so don't rely on this for security.
