Hi,
I'm trying to allow a friend access to my Synology DS212J NAS over the internet. I can't get this to work!
I manually log on to my Sagem Sky router and set up a port forwarding rule for inbound connections from port 5000 to 192.168.0.8 (5000:5000) which is the ip of my disk-station.
The FileStation application on the NAS uses port 5000 so I would expect any call to http://<my-ip>:5000 to bring up a password prompt for NAS login, but I just get a Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage. Can anyone think where I'm going wrong?
Cheers,
Russ.
