Hi missyr,
I see it's your first post here, so welcome to the community! We don't block anything except for port 25 to cut down on email spam. Regarding security cameras, generally if it can work with dynamic IPs, it should work on a HughesNet connection.
I googled the manual for what I think is your modem Lorex camera and you might want to check out page 45 - 15.4.1 Configuring Network Type: DHCP & Static IP. Make sure the system is configured to use DHCP as opposed to Static IP.
Beyond that, if that does not address your concern, I defer to other HughesNet subscribers who may have the Lorex security camera as well.
I have the same problem with my Lorex Security System. It worked great until I swithed to Hughes. Now it simply will not connect on my phone.
See what the HughesNet moderator told the previous poster: if your system works with dynamic IP, then it will work with HughesNet.
Does your system not work with dynamic IP? You may need to consult the manual.
According to Lorex: A Lorex DDNS account allows you to connect to your Lorex system from anywhere in the world using an easy-to-remember web site address that is available 24/7. This is perfect whether you have a Static or Dynamic IP address - no matter how often your Internet Service Provider changes your IP address, Lorex's exclusive DDNS service will keep you connected to the things that matter to you most.
