What type of modem/router/gateway did they give you? And what are you using for a router?
Commonly, we'll put a switch between the modem and the primary router..and have additional devices plugged into that switch..which will use additional IPs.
Or...some more business grade routers support 1 to 1 IP mapping...so your router is getting several public IP addresses on its WAN interface.
Helps to know the needs you have for the additional IPs.
