Portforwarding on ReadyNAS Duo
Now, here is an easy/stupid question (hopefully). How do I set up port forwarding on a ReadyNAS Duo, for ReadyNAS Remote? I have searched the forums and everywhere and have followed this guide http...
Works from outside as well, and transfer speeds are up again, so port forwarding seems to have solved the issue. Also forgot to mention earlier that after some relayed connections, I was unable to connect remotely at all. For any other newbie out there that finds this post, I'll write it a bit clearer than the instructions that I could find.
You are using a relayed connection to the following ReadyNAS device: <device name>
If you are getting a relayed connection when connecting through ReadyNAS Remote, setting up port forwarding in the router that the NAS is connected to might solve the problem. Neither the remote client that you are connecting from nor the NAS itself need to be configured in any way. Do the following:
1. Log in to the router and find the option for port forwarding.
2. Choose a single port for a TCP service and give it a name (e.g. ReadyNAS Remote).
3. Specify the IP address of the NAS. This can be found on the Home page in Frontview, if it is not already listed as a connected device somewhere in the router interface.
4. Click OK/Save/Apply or whatever it's called in your router interface.
