Downloading to your pc from a share

-a non-standard port was chosen - xxxx does it matter wich portnumber?

-passive ports are set to xxxx+1 to xxxx+5 Means just to portnumbers?

-masquerade as is set to the Duo host name. The name of your NAS, right?

Note my duo uses the user security model. What is that?

for each share on the Duo, -ftp default access is set to read/write -all other boxes left alone. What boxes?

On the router, TCP ports xxxx to xxxx+5 are forwarded to the Duo The 2 porst I put in the passive ports setting? ddns is active, so I can use a uri to reach the router. uri means Uri Keller :)

So it is generally best to use numbers between 49160 and 65534 (as these are not assigned) -passive ports are set to xxxx+1 to xxxx+5 Means just to portnumbers? Yes -masquerade as is set to the Duo host name. The name of your NAS, right? Yes Note my duo uses the user security model. What is that? In the past the duo also had a "share" security model - this was taken out a while ago, so if you have current firmware you don't need to worry about it. for each share on the Duo, -ftp default access is set to read/write -all other boxes left alone. What boxes? All the share access restriction configuration settings and advanced FTP permission settings can be left as is. On the router, TCP ports xxxx to xxxx+5 are forwarded to the Duo The 2 porst I put in the passive ports setting? ddns is active, so I can use a uri to reach the router. uri means Uri Keller :) URI is "Uniform Resource Identifier" - a techy way of saying ftp://blah.blah.blah (for instance http://www.cnn.com is a URI)

So you would want passive ports 50002 - 60000. Though about 10000 ports for ftp is a lot more than you need. I'd suggest 50002-50005 (4 passive ports total). So in your example, perhaps 50000: https to the readynas 50001: ftp main port to the readynas 50002-5: ftp passive ports to the readynas aaah that`s make it more clear now. master64nl wrote: So I can choose for example port 50001 and passive ports 50000 - 60000?

In the router, set things up to that the full port range you want to use for the ReadyNas are forwarded to the ReadyNas. I think that is what you are saying... Same as the set up for HTTPS. Most routers support ddns, so you can set that up in the router itself (with one ddns name that always reaches the router). The router uses the incoming port to forward the request to the ReadyNAS. What router are you using?

... You mean DynDNS account with ddns?

I can not set up DynDNS settings in my tele2 modem/router. I have an DynDNS account but I am using that for something else. So how to set up my external ip to my internal NAS address and don`t have issues with my other setting?

So how to set up my external ip to my internal NAS address and don`t have issues with my other setting? 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). That`s right, but does it not bite the other thing I used the DynDNS name for? Assuming you are using DynDNS for some other network, you can You are saying that I make the NAS an server via DynDNS? (1) Ask for a static IP address from your ISP, and then just use the IP address. This generally is not free. It is. (2) Get a free no-ip ddns account. Download their Dynamic DNS Update Client and install it on your PC. I have a paid one. 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.

Wich port number must I forward excactly.
