Hello
What sort of problems do they have?
You already have more IP addresses than you need, why don't you just use the
addresses outside the boundary.
Each of your pools are 45 long.
You can easily fit 3x45 inside 1 class C range.
You can use 192.168.x.x etc for numbers on your network. You only need
public registered numbers for addresses which your customers will want to
reach.
Cheers
James
