It shouldn't be hard ... a little googling on "htaccess ip restriction"
gave me this code snippet for your ~/public-html/.htaccess file:

<limit GET>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 192.168.0.1
</limit>

WAIX is a tad harder, since the IP ranges of waix aren't well defined
.. perhaps something involving hosting the page on mussel in public_html
(since mussel is only accessible from UWA and WAIX).
