The HughesNet ht2000w modem/router lacks a bridge mode. I appears though that it is possible to disable the router, but i understand there is more to it than that (I know just enough to create problems - but I can follow instructions). We use primarily Apple products. A couple months ago we were majorly ‘hacked’ and are now in the process of getting things back up and running, but with significant improvement in security. Thanks for your help.
