What's going on is that the captive port only sees one IP and one MAC.
Because the AccessPoint does NAT you cannot see that multiple users are behind it.
This is the base principle behind NAT.There is currently no way for you to block something like that.
However this thread http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,10392.0.html is about detecting when someone is using a NAT device.
