FYI, If you wanted to run BGP, you would need the following:-
1) An ASN from ARIN 2) Your upstream providers agreement to change your connection to BGP. 3) Hardware (Router(s)) capable of running BGP. 4) If your ip blocks are /24 or smaller prefix (i.e. blocks of Class C), you can ask your provider for an LOA or readvertise. i.e. just because you have ip blocks from two service providers, it does not stop you from advertising them via BGP to the other provider (as long as they are class c or larger blocks). personally, you should RUN to ARIN and get your own allocation (the last of which is being handed out now, or forever keep your peace !)
