Our internet connection is a T1, distributed over an internal

tried the obvious, which was to plug a hub into where our web computer
is and distribute from there, but it won't work. I found out that the
system is set up to communicate only with the MAC address of the
specific ethernet card in that computer. It ignores any other network
device that is plugged into it.

Many DSL routers, like a Linksys BEFSR41 can fake a MAC address and
act as a hub the way you intended,

But what happens when the IT department discovers your evasion of
their policy?
