Nat loop back XR500 configuration
I’m currently running a Synology NAS on my network. Night Hawk XR500. I have a DNS which I can access when I’m off my local network. However, unable to access when within my local network.
I believe the solution is related to Nat Loop back function. Could I pls get some feedback on how I would configure ?

- There aren't any specific options related to this but the options in WAN may help, for example the NAT to Open option relaxes the firewall, that could be blocking it
- Okay, will test in the next 24 hours and report back.
Quick glacé of the manual - it does say this option potentially opens up risks of 3part attacks .- I'd say it's very unlikely, I've never heard of anyone suffering an attack using that option, as long as you're up to date on firmware you'll have the latest security updates.
