Not sure how relevant it is, but I've had an 8 IP ADSL service for over three years now, and it's actually a *nine* IP service, the extra one is for the external interface on your router, the network of 8 is then are assigned to the internal interface(s) with one being reserved for the gateway on the router, one for broadcast, leaving you with 5 in total (bad idea to use the first in the range, although it may work).

The router simply routes between the two networks, no NAT or anything. Any modem/router that allows you to set your own internal range and gateway should work. Mine's a Draytek Vigor2600WE and I can recommend it very highly.
