Did you try that? It's a shared/private address. More important,
it's different from your apparent public address:> I get 77.32.x.y

That's right. As explained before, "100.124.135.89" is a private
address, so can't work from the outside world. "77.32.x.y" is a public
address, but it's the address of a router at your ISP, not the address
of your D7800.> Strangely I can get the router and the NAS, using their own app like

I'm sorry but I can't get it, my english has become rusty :smileysad:
I'll try to explain better; for example:
- My router (ADVANCED HOME) says my IP is 100.124.135.89, the same in the Android Genie App
- but when I resolve my two DDNS services xxxxx.mynetgear.com or xxxxx.synology.me , I get 77.32.24.191
I checket it with my.noip.com synology.com dnsqueries dnscecker and even nslookup in the linux terminal
I tryed usign both the IP to reach the router 100.124.135.89:8483 77.32.24.191:8483 but they don't work
I hope I answered your question
Strangely I can get the router and the NAS, using their own app like genie or dsfinder

This may be the answer

A device (router, NAS box, ...) which creates an _outgoing_
connection to some cloud server somewhere can be contacted by going
through that cloud server. Using a web browser to create an _incoming_
connection directly to the router requires that the router have a public
IP address.

Yup.
Thank antinode and shadowsports for helping me.
I don't think that my ISP would give a pubblic address (at leat not for free :smileywink:)
Anyway I managed to get the router via Genie, and definetely I've learnt something new.
