We will need additional information to help you.

1. Check the ip of each workstation to ensure that they are unique.
2. Make sure that DNS setings are the same on all pc's as the one that can get online all of the time.

3. s the PC that can get on Wired or wireless
4. Would internet connection sharing be of benefit in your scenario

5. Have you enabled WEP and mistyped the keys? Try setting all keys to "123" and see if the problem persists....

6. Can you ping each of the workstations from each other

Go through the OSI Model from the physical layer to application layer and see if there is a breakdown in the chain. It is likely that your problem will be resolved in layer 1, 2, or 3 or possibly layer 7 if WEP or Filtering is in place.

Again, additional info, would be helpful.
