help me getting access to the router from internet
Hello, I searched here and there but still the same issue. I have a Nas ultra 2 connected to a router Cisco E3200 which is connected to my modem router a Sagem VDSL modem from Scarlet (Belgium, Bel...
First thing you need to do is change your LAN setup to have a single router. Right now you have a NAT router behind a NAT router, so you'll never be able to connect from outside.
If you can change your DSL modem into bridge mode that would be easiest. This way the modem acts as a dumb DSL bridge. The router will obtain a public IP on its WAN port and intelligently handle traffic between your LAN and WAN.
From there if your E3200 has uPnP enabled Photos II should setup port forwarding automatically. Personally, I am not a fan of uPnP from a security standpoint and I disable it on systems I work on. If you choose to follow my practice you'll need to port forward the "listen" port (usually TCP 8086) in your router.
Here's the Photos II manual. The first 10 pages or so discusses port forward. http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/ ... 9Mar12.pdf
