There are some option in install. Have you ever tried them?

Just look at. It seems like this is what you just described.

[FE][lockIP]
[BE][lockIP]


[lockIP]
Integer (0-4). Session IP locking for backend users. See [FE][lockIP] 
for details. Default is 4 (which is locking the FULL IP address to session).


[lockIP]
Integer (0-4). If >0, fe_users are locked to (a part of) their 
REMOTE_ADDR IP for their session. Enhances security but may throw off 
users that may change IP during their session (in which case you can 
lower it to 2 or 3). The integer indicates how many parts of the IP 
address to include in the check. Reducing to 1-3 means that only first, 
second or third part of the IP address is used. 4 is the FULL IP address 
and recommended. 0 (zero) disables checking of course.
