Yes this is an "important thread"! 
Tiberius, they actually don't believe in the IPv4 shortage lol. But even if they did, squandering a few IPs on people setting up servers is hardly going to make much difference - the main IP hogs are big networks that run on public IPs instead of private NATs, universities, banks, other large organisations, etc. And it doesn't really matter now anyway since we do have IPv6, and most modern equipment can resolve it. If my ISP offered IPv6 blocks that'd be great - but they don't. They only use IPv4. The sooner they use up their "inexhaustible supply" the sooner they'll mitigate to IPv6, so really I'm doing everyone a favour by using up a few more IPs! The sooner they're used up the sooner everyone moves to IPv6.
You have to have a business account to ask for IP subnets, it's not offered to residential customers. Anyway I'm using the IPs for their intended purpose - setting up internet servers at home!

If it was me, I'd try loading a firewall image onto the Rasp Pi B+ I have lying around. ($50)
I'd be surprised if the sw won't support what you're trying to do, but my fear is the little Pi may not have the bandwidth and may slow down net traffic.
No God, No fear.

Oh I've sorted it. I picked up a " Budii Lite" earlier today for $30 and it has no problem. The Huawei just won't do it - you can tell it to route the IP in the settings, and it accepts it, but it's dumb and does nothing about it.

I've made the thread "unimportant" again. Not sure why it was in the first place.
It's disheartening to see an ISP so publicly deny the fact that IPv4 addresses are running out, but they'll certainly get a surprise sooner or later.

LOL I read that as Bud Lite (as in the beer) and figured you resolved your issue by drinking it away.
Silly me.

Well, like I said, the sooner the IPv4's are used the better and we can all move on. My ISP, which owns the infrastructure, don't' provide IPv6. Once their "inexhaustible" supply of IPv4 is gone however they will have to provide it.
And I think you made the thread important? I certainly didn't!
