RE: block internet at two workstations

If the hosts have static IP's you could enter a static route in your
gateway router (the netgear device I assume) for all packets from the
host IP's and have them routed to some black hole IP such as
192.168.1.1.  The removal of a default gateway or DNS entry from the
host itself would also work but if these people know anything about
computers they could simply add those entries back in by reading them
from another PC on the network.

Or... Delete the DNS entry

I'm working with a small (10 user network) with a netgear FVS318
firewall, accessing the internet via cable modem.. The client wants to
block internet access at two workstations.  I don't see anything
available within the firewall documentation/configuration that would
address this.  What is the best and easiest way to do this ...easy and
best may be a contradiction :-)

TIA
Tim
