Did you ever get your port forwarding to work?
I am using the LM1200 with Verizon also. I have a TP-Link router connected to the LM1200. I have set up my port forwarding on the TP-Link, but I can't enter the IP of my LAN device in the LM1200 because the IP range is different. 192.168.5.x for the modem, 192.168.0.x for the router LAN.
I couldn't get my router to stay online when the modem was in Bridge mode, but it works fine in Router mode. I had hoped to stay in Bridge mode to avoid this type conflict, but no such luck.

No, I tried all sorts of combinations to port forward, but didn't run into this IP problem as you allude to. I think I was also trying to port forward twice, through my router which was itself configured to port forward to another server on my LAN. Obviously I wasn't expecting it to work well when on LTE, but my problem is that it wouldn't work while on broadband either.
In the end I signed up for a small plan with Net10 wireless, which does not rely on Verizon, and got it to barely work. But in my case, it's a backup connection anyway, so didn't matter. But I would have preferred to be on Verizon (along with all my other devices), and that problem is STILL not solved, check the other thread for details.
