The issue is on DirecWay's end; what happens is that residential customers are assigned non-routable IPs (10.x.x.x) and once a residential customer's traffic hits the IP backbone, the IP address is switched to a routable (66.x.x.x or 205.x.x.x) address. When the address is switched (or swipped), the packets are dropped at a proxy server/firewall.
The workaround is that customers can upgrade to a "Business Edition" account which will assign a static, routable IP to the user. The customer would need to contact DirecTV/DirecWay for more information.
