How do I do this? You can (1) attach a single computer to the modem and assign the IP to the network adapter on the computer |

| Here find how to configure the computer network adapter.
In the Internet Protocol window:
»ask-leo.com/how_do_i_configure_m···ess.html
IP address = your static IP address PLUS 1
Gateway = your static IP
SubnetMask = 255.255.255.252
Prefered DNS Server = 66.82.4.8
Aletrnate DNS Server = 66.82.4.12
These DNS Servers are the hughes defaults, but you can use others if you like.

Eureka, CA | Is there some reason you are not using a router? A static IP and no router means you are wide-open to the internet, dependent on software firewalls to take care of security. Putting a router inbetween is the best first-line of defense. |

I Guess the biggest question here is how do you want to use this service?
If your running a webserver than you want to point that traffic to your static IP, but a word of caution here. You should invest in a firewall of some sort to protect your system(s).
If your planning on sending email from this good luck. I've been arguing with HughesNet for months about allocating a correct RDNS for the static IP I have to no avail. Actually canceled their service this week. Heck I'd rather deal with dial up slowness then the customer support slowness.. lol
