I hope this is in the right forum!
Has anyone successfully used DDNS and has gotten it to work, "been able to get into DSM from outside." I've been working with Synology tech support for almost a month. Now, tech support had me set it up via the dsm support feature and giving them my log in and they said it worked. However when I try it I get the log in screen but after I hit sign in, it either comes back to it or goes to my routers reset screen. FWIW quick connect works.
Now when Synology did it, I did not have any ports forwarded in my router, but I've seen in numerous videos that you need to forward port 5000 and 5001 which I've tried with the same results. Am not even sure the router is forwarding them.
One more odd thing. My fiber internet has it's own weird router connector for the fiber optic cable. it, "fiber," comes from the wall into a white box then a cable comes from that into their router and from there to my routers WAN port vias cat 6.
I hope I didn't leave anything out!!!!
My reason for trying this is to share my NAS with friends/family.
