Hi All, I'm trying to get the Synology to backup to a remote QNAP (over the net). I know this works - as I had it working for over a year - but my mate's device messed up and he needed to re-build it. Since then, I have been unable to get the damned things working again. Does anyone have...

Hi there, I've been reading through these forums and others trying to find the best solution for my use case. I'm more confused than ever, but I'm starting to think Synology products might not be able to do what I'm looking for. My ideal outcome is to have a local storage solution with an...

Hi - I don't recall how long it has been, but when I am away from my home network - which has a Synology RT2600ac router - Photo Backup in the DS Photo app is not automatic, and even when I try to manually run it, photos simply don't upload.
