WebDAV on ReadyNAS Duo v1 not responding to WAN connections
Hi, I set up WebDAV access on a ReadyNAS Duo v1 running firmware v.4.1.14. I followed the instructions as stated here, including installation of mentioned webdav patch. I configured a share to be...
Works just fine, after the usual self-signed certificate warning.
Ok. So the connection is working fine.
Perhaps ES File Explorer is choking on the cert error??? Or a typo in its webdav server config???
I set it up to use ftps myself (which works fine, and is also encrypted).

No, this isn't the problem, unfortunately. As I mentioned before, I am able to establish a connection and transfer files with ES Explorer as long as I connect from LAN. The issue exists for WAN connections only. I suspect webdav is dropping every connection originating from any address range other than the lan's subnet. I have ssh access enabled; could you point me to any configuration file that define access restrictions based on IP addresses?

Perhaps a Netgear person can reply on the config question.
When I have a chance, I'll configure one of my Duo's shares to use webdav, and see if I can duplicate your problem on my phone.
Thanks StephenB for your input.
Since a factory reset did not improve anything, I flashed the firmware again, and what do you know, webdav is now responding on wan.
