Hi all
I have a set up as follows:
ASUS RT-N13U router with LAN addresses (192.168.1.1/24). It is also configured for dyndns with (asuscomm.com provided by the router). On the router I have port forward for my IP camera which works fine locally and remotely, I also have a port forward for remote desktop 3389, which I use to access remote desktop from my Ipad, works perfectly with RDP client.

My issue is NAS port forward, from what i read amongst the blogs & videos, i have configured it properly but it only works locally. Remote connection is timing out or just cannot find the server.

Name        Port range   Local Ip address   Local Port   Protocol (TCP/UDP)
Server       3389         192.168.1.150         3389          BOTH
IPCAM       81            192.168.1.100        81             BOTH
DLink NAS  8108         192.168.1.10         80             BOTH
DLink NAS  1021         192.168.1.10         21             BOTH

I used my dyndns account to log in remotely as follows:
xxx.asuscomm.com:81 to access the ipcam works fine Remote( Locallly with IP Add & port)
xxx.asuscomm.com with Microsoft Remote Desktop, works fine Remote( Locallly with IP Add via RDP)
xxx.asuscomm.com:8080 to access DLINK NAS ( Doesn’t work remotely) locally FTP and HTTP works fine.
NB: xxx.asuscomm.com where xxx is my chosen name.

Particularly interested in using filebrowser, can anyone assist me to connect/access  files stored on my NAS remotely?

Hi

Name        Port range   Local Ip address   Local Port   Protocol (TCP/UDP)
DLink NAS  8108         192.168.1.10         80             BOTH

and

xxx.asuscomm.com:8080 to access DLINK NAS ( Doesn’t work remotely)

do not match: Either use xxx.asuscomm.com:8108 or reconfigure "DLink NAS 8080 192.168.1.10 80 BOTH".

Name        Port range   Local Ip address   Local Port   Protocol (TCP/UDP)
DLink NAS  1021         192.168.1.10         21             BOTH

I suspect this will not work because the router is not able to interpret this to be the FTP protocol and hence to apply an Application Level Gateway (ALG) function which is possibly needed to support FTP to cross a NAT router (e.g. to allow an incoming ftp-data connection in case you use passive FTP).

So try the following port forwarding rule instead:

Name        Port range   Local Ip address   Local Port   Protocol (TCP/UDP)
DLink NAS  21         192.168.1.10         21             BOTH

and access it remotely via xxx.asuscomm.com:21.

Thanks for reply

I missed typed that port number 8080 on xxx.asuscomm.com:8080, its actually xxx.asuscomm.com:8108 and the router is configured as such and i could not access my nas drive remotely via filebrowser. Locally it works fine.

I tried also the recommended 21:21 configuration on the router and still could not access my nas drive remotely w/FB.

Also i tried to expose my nas address(DMZ) still no luck.

And my firewall on the router is turned off.

Did you configure the default gateway of your DNS-320 to be your router's LAN address 192.168.1.1?
