How to acces Sharecenter configuration page from internet
« on: January 26, 2016, 11:02:26 AM »
Hello, I can't find a way to connect to the NAS configuration page outside local network, from internet, at work or abroad, cannot connect using the public IP address. I Have forwarded ports 80 and 443 to NAS but still not working. FTP is working correctly from outside also the dlink ddns.

Would like to know if there's another way to connect to the configuration page from outside local network (mydlink cloud does not allow to configure anything)

Thanks

I have to ask why you would want to do such a thing?  The last time I looked at the web UI for any of our NAS boxes was over a year ago when I setup the test box.

Having the web UI readily available on the internet invites people to try and crack your password and so gain access to your NAS box.  It is possible for anyone cracking your box to lock you out of it until such time as you can gain physical access and do a reset to defaults. 

In other words what you want to do is a security risk.
