To answer your questions...
1: I wouldn't bother unless you want a more modern WAP with Wireless-AC and such.
2: Wouldn't hurt to get everything IPv6 compliant.
3: Remote access via IPv4 isn't possible, and remote access via IPv6 is a nightmare at best.
4: Wont work on Hughesnet over IPv4.
5: Remote access in general isn't possible with Hughesnet Residential services.

Thanks for the answers. Not exactly what I was hoping for...
After reviewing the links, it seems like remote access is really only possible if IPv6 is used throughout. One message in the link talked about putting an RPi in the system to doing the IPv6 DDNS work so I guess that is an option.
One thing that isn't clear is the willingness of HN to assign static IPs to business customers. Some posters claimed that HN was only assigning static IP addresses for legacy customers. I will be conducting business from this site and will need to VPN into the corp system. Does anyone know for sure that HN will (or will not) assign static IP for business customers?
