    You should contact Business Support at 800-347-3272 for assistance...  Hughesnet doesn't offer anything but the HT2000w, you can configure some features, however, those features are useless as you are behind CGN.

Bad news: this is impossible on Gen5 even if you're a business subscriber. IPv4 is delivered via carrier-grade NAT, so there is no way to set up inbound port forwards on your HT2000W. IPv6 public addresses are available, but they change very frequently so are equally useless. Please see:

then my only solution would be:

  1. A full "flat" modem that requires a separate router to provide Internet service. Then, I can configure everything in the router.
  2. A fully configurable modem with all the capabilities and features.

Any idea?

Thanks!
