jere Cox, follow guidance given here except uncheck the "SSID Enable" box for both 2.4 and 5 GHz radios.
So after some forum exploration, I think the issue lies in the fact that the Gen5 HT2000w is both a router and modem. With the Gen4 device it was only a router which I connected to my Apple Airport Extreme and on into the rest of my devices in my wifi network. I had no wireless problems what so ever. So I'm thinking that the HT2000w needs to "bridge" to the Airport Extreme which then would transmit the wifi signal to the entire network. Is it possible to set the HT2000w to Bridge Mode?
Right now the only way I can get internet service is to plug into the Ethernet and this is only for my laptop. This leaves out all of the rest of our devices which rely on a wifi connection. I just may have to go back to the Gen4.
Your Gen4 HT1100 was both a modem and a router, it just wasn't a wireless router.
If you plugged a router into the 1100 and did not enable DHCP in the router then the Hughes 1100 handed out IP addresses to devices connected to your router if you enabled DHCP in your router then your router handed out IP's to your connected devices, both wired and wireless although you are double-NATed.
You can do the same with the HT2000w, you just need to disable the wireless portion of it.
