I had a 183 address from them and it all worked. When we went to their 
600Mb/s service and asked for 8 static IPs, they gave me eight 24.109 
addresses (on two different subnets and gateways). I even asked them 
about that, and they said it wasn't the problem.

I think I really need to verify the 24 address space isn't part of their 
DHCP list, even though they gave them to me as static.
