and it worked fine, but now I cant access the admin login settings thing. I used to use 192.168.1.65 or https://<NAS NAME> but now it just redirects to the index.html page in the website folder. How to I disable the website bit so I can have my NAS back to normal?
Thanks
I am not sure but shouldn't you be able to connect to the adminpage by udsing http://192.168.1.65/admin ?

Yes, since he redirected http://192.168.65 to the web-server page.
Though https://192.168.1.65/admin would be better. I recommend disabling http access to the admin page if you are forwarding port 80 to the NAS.

Thank you! I managed to get back in. If I disable the http log in (i assume to help prevent being hacked) how would I access the admin pages?

Hello therealnips,
Try adding "/admin" instead to get to the admin page.

http admin uses port 80. https admin uses port 443.
So if you forward port 80, but not port 443, you'd have to be on the same LAN as the NAS and go to https://ip.address.of.nas/admin if http admin is disabled.
