It doesn't work that way... You may think you bought 8 ip's, but you can only pass traffic on 6... That is how it works... You buy 16, and only 14 work. The first and last address are as Johnny said...
I've also seen DSL networks like this where those extra IPs are bridged not routed. in these cases, you use the same gateway as the 'main' IP, but usually the main IP has a /24 or whatever mask that encompasses ALL the IPs.
regardless, the OP should contact the ISP and find out what the mask and gateway are for the extra IPs.

Solution: removed PREFIX from ifcfg-eth0
I'm not surprised and I'm really beginning to develop an abject hate for all things networking in Fedora/RHEL land. I's kludges upon kludges to accommodate new ways of doing things while keeping backwards compatibility within a framework of stitched together shell scripts.
