- Are you forwarding any ports to the NAS from the router?
- Is the upnp service enabled on the router?
FWIW, the IP address in your picture is in Singapore.

You need to know for sure.
Go into the Orbi web ui. Select "advanced" at the top, and then select "advanced" again from the side menu.
- Select UPnP from the left menu. If "Turn UPnP" is checked, then uncheck it and select "Apply".
- Then select Port Forwarding/Port Triggering from the same left menu. See if there is anything forwarded to the NAS. Make sure you click "Port Triggering" after you've checked "Port forwarding".

Also, let us know what apps are running on the NAS. A torrent app is one possible vector for these attacks (but there could be others).
