First of all, if DynDNS is also being used to connect to your tele2 router, than you can just use the DynDNS name with your NAS as well. (the purpose of the ddns is to reach your router by name; getting from the router to the NAS or a PC is done by the port forwarding in the router).
Assuming you are using DynDNS for some other network, you can
(1) Ask for a static IP address from your ISP, and then just use the IP address. This generally is not free.
(2) Get a free no-ip ddns account. Download their Dynamic DNS Update Client and install it on your PC.
The disadvantage of the PC update client is that it can only resync your external IP address when the PC is on. So if you want to access the NAS when you are away from home, you might need to keep the PC turned on.
