How on earth do I connect to this with a mobile or a tablet if I am not on my home network. So for example if I am at a friends house, how do I stream a movie to their TV using localcast for example.

  • With Netgear having taken down ReadyNAS Remote, there is no longer an easy and secure way to do that on the legacy NASes.  You could forward a port on your router to access the NAS, but that's risky.  A couple more secure ways are via a VPN or remote access to a computer on your home network.  But I know of no VPN add-on for OS5.x, so you'd have to implement it via your router or a PC.  I've not investigated methods of using remote access to a PC for this.

     

    BTW, the upload speed of your home network probably won't support high resolution in real time.
