Might I suggest you look into just using PPPoE for wireless applications? You
can first off make use of WEP to secure the traffic to some extent, then run
PPPoE (which can authenticate through radius) to have your clients login and
what-not. This way you can control not only access to the network but also
access to which IP address(es).
We have a similar setup here, where we use private IP's from tower to
tower and route traffic back to home base, where clients login with PPPoE to
get an external IP address and it works very well thus far.
Just my 2 cents, if you still want to block/control by mac address why not
just use a switch which has radius support; eg: Cisco 2924XL.
