Most isp's are going to be picky about advertising such a small subnet. Luckily, all is not lost. You'll have to get a /24 from one of your Isp's to get the best shot at being Globally Routable. Also, you have to get an AS # from ARIN, But before you spend the time (money) to do it, make sure

Here are some experiences learned. This is what you do. Write up a request for 1 of the ISPs requesting a /24 block(you can fill in anything here to justify it and if you don't get it the first time try again ...). Tell both ISPs that you want to advertise your new block. Obtain an AS from ARIN.

I can tell you 2 things to help you: - Yes the big ISP will fitter-out anything below an /24 (believe me I'm working for an big one) - And, no all the traffic will not come by the new ISP, because you are going to announce your block under your own AS (I did told you that you will need an AS nu
