Time Warner (TWTC, not TWC) does the same thing... we have 8 addresses
from them... 131 - 138; it's a /24 and we get to use those 8 addresses.
[Yes, that causes problems trying to access anything else in that /24] I
have no clue what's on the other end of that, and really don't care. (it's
more or less bridged ethernet over a T1, that's also carrying voice.)
