I just wanted to update the community regarding my issue connecting to a camera via HughesNet. After a bunch of reading, I picked up an Arlo Pro two camera system.

I've set my motion detections so that the cameras are armed at night and when I choose to check up on things. I'm going to keep a close eye on data usage and adjust accordingly. I hope this helps others and possibly tech support at HughesNet considering they stated it was not possible.
Hello 567Chief,

I just signed up for Hughes Net last week and I was also told by customer service that the reason I can't connect to my camera (Flir FX which is Cloud Based but only one when I leave and noise is made by my dogs) is because Hughes Net doesn't support this kind of device because they require a Static Ip address. This information totally confused me as I was previously running this camera off my Boost Mobile Hot Spot before what I thought was upgrading to Hughes Net? Do I really have to cancel my service and go back to a Hot Spot in order to keep my camera up and running. Please Help!

Also, you might want to try disabling Web-Acceleration as a last final step to see if that helps.1: Visit http://192.168.0.1 in your web-browser.
2: Click the "i" icon at the top of the HT1100/2000w System Control Center (also known as the SCC). It is highlighted in red in the image below.
3: Click on "Web Acceleration" then "Control" outlined in red.
4: Click on "Web Acceleration Enabled", this will change to an orange button that says "Web Acceleration Disabled".
5: Restart your browser and try using the service that isn't working, please let us know how that works for you.
