Dear all

How could I connect new NAS Server with my wifi router??

1. I added a NAS Server, my Nas port: 8181, External port:8181 2. I failed to set up on my asus wifi router!
How could I set up with Custom Configuration ?? for example:
External Port:
Internal Port:
Internal Port:
my Nas IP is 192.168.50.XX
my public Ip is 59.138.21.XX
I want to make 59.138.21.XX:8181 to work.

Thank you all!

Best regards

Haru

Hi,

You've already answered your own questions. Fill in the fields in the router configuration with the information you have.

Service name: nginx
Protocol: TCP
External port: 8181
Internal port: 8181
Internal IP address: 192.168.50.XX (IP address of your NAS)
Source IP: (leave blank)

If you have any more troubles, you should ask for help from the ASUS user community, not here where we're dealing with QNAP products, while your questions are ASUS-specific.

And as dolbyman advised in the previous post, beware of the security risks you're taking by opening ports to the Internet.
