Alternative Port for DDNS

I want to access my Synology NAS and my Router interface sperately from each other. But the DDNS always pushes me to Port 1080. So I always get the NAS, never the router. What port is the router on. ...

       Ok.  Using what, exactly, as a URL? Note that Remote Management
    (Fernsteuerung) uses "https://".

     

       If, from here, I try the URL on your Fernsteuerung page, _I_ get to
    your router (after Firefox complains about the certificate):

     

          https://xxxxxxxx.mynetgear.com:8080 is requesting your username
          and password. The site says: "NETGEAR R7000P"

     

    (And then, when I fail to put in the right user+pass, it starts trying
    to "help" me with a "Router-Passwort wiederhergestellt" page.  I don't
    know your serial number, either.)

     

       "http://xxxxxxxx.mynetgear.com:1080" takes me to a "Heikos
    Homeserver" page (for which I also have no valid credentials).  I assume
    that that's your NAS.


       So, I see no obvious problem.  Are you trying to access your
    Fernsteuerung URL from the outside world, or from a system on your LAN?
    Around here (D7000[v1], V1.0.1.74_1.0.1), I fail to reach my own Remote
    Management site (Firefox: "The connection has timed out") from a system
    on my LAN.  I might call that a firmware bug.

     

       Interestingly, in general, NAT loopback works for me.  I can get to
    my own web server using "http[s]://<my_public_IP_address" from my LAN,
    but not to the D7000 Remote Management site, using the recommended URL
    (same address, different port).  (I don't know if I've ever tried to use
    Remote Management from some remote location, so I can't say with
    certainty that that works.  But I assume so.)
