R7000 Router Open VPN Server with No-IP

Probably should check with the OpenVPN and No IP address folks to see what maybe allowed thru the router if you set those up. I presume that if you removed those configurations, then you wouldn't be able to get to the LAN side of your network from the WAN side.

I recently set up my AC2300 router to be an OpenVPN server. I used No-IP to create a new DDNS domain name.  I wish to access my home internet connection from the remote location where I am now. I have not yet installed the OpenVPN client software on my computer. I happened to just type in my new No-IP domain on my browser and was surprised to find my self looking at my home network's Login Page for my NAS. Somehow I has bypassed any kind of Netgear firewall and was inside my home network remotely without any sort of security (User Name/Password). Basically it means anyone who knows my new domain name can access devices on my home network! That does not seem right. Did I do something wrong?

What type of service did you subscribe to with No-IP?

Within the VPN configuration on the router, you should have used your domain name as well as your No-IP user name and No-IP account password.
