Thanks Stephen! Yes, we've got several thousand customers including some businesses with /29s and a few businesses with /28s, but only 2048 addresses from ARIN plus we lease another 512 addresses from another ISP. So IPv4 addresses are harder to come by, i.e. more expensive, than just a few years ago.
Currently we put residential customers on carrier grade NAT unless they explicitly ask for a fixed address. In that case we give them a single fixed IP address (either via PPPoE or via 1-to-1 NAT, depending on how their service is delivered). Extra addresses (so far only requested by businesses) are $40/month for a /29 (5 useable addresses). Any thing beyond that, e.g. a /28, requires an ARIN address justification. In any event, we don't block any ports, we provide symmetric services and provide the best speeds that radios and economics allows. Our fastest services (300/300 Mbps or 500/500 Mbps) are in multi-unit buildings (apartments or condos) where we can bring in Gig+ capacity to the roof and wire down through a building.
