What do I need so that I can also access my NAS outside of the premises?
As you can see in the picture, my NAS is connected to my Wi-Fi modem. I guess a PC and a VPN tool right?
so I don't know my way around that well. But if I'm, for example, with my notebook and an active internet connection at another location, I want to access my files and have full admin rights
If you usually access via an IP address, you have to convert your IP into a domain at no-ip.com.
This way you can also get on it outside.
Yes set up port forwarding in the router and it must be a public IP to the outside. Not like some others just a DSL light connection.
Or DMZ or exposed host, but be careful with that.
If you have DS-Light, you can still use IPv6, in which case there's even no port forwarding. But not the firewall, which the router still is.
But I guess I have to do that every time I turn on the Nas right?
DSL light connection
Delete the first L. It's called DS Lite, it has nothing to do with DSL, but with dual stack. Otherwise you are right.
No, just once. It stays that way
I would avoid dmz, then prefer a VPN, directly to the NAS…
Do i do wsl in the browser in the nas backend?
Oh thank you Don't even know if all providers have dat. Believe Telekom and Alice something. But Alice is no longer there as far as I know.
You shouldn't switch the NAS on and off all the time, it damages the hard drives… They run longer if you let them run…
Ok thanks I would still have a question: I have four network drives but they don't recognize the new domain right? Say I have to reintegrate the network drives with the new ip?
You only have to do it once, no matter what you do with the hard drives. The server IP is static and you have to integrate the drives in the server settings, so it has nothing to do with the IP / domain
Do WesternDigital Red Series plates fit?
They all go, they are then automatically formatted to the required file system
O.k I asked because the RedSeries are operating for 24 hours.
Yes, I have that too, 1 million hours, that's about 14 years with continuous running…
You have to set up port sharing / port forwarding on your router. This enables access via your public IP address. Public IP address means:
IPv4: The public IPv4 address of the router. If you have a Dual Stack Lite connection, you do not have a public IPv4 address. Then it becomes difficult.
IPv6: The public IPv6 address of the NAS.
Because these addresses can change from time to time, you can use a DynDNS service. Some of them are free. Most routers support various DynDNS services, the manual will help. For the IPv6 address, the NAS must update the DynDNS service.
Oh thank you Don't even know if all providers have dat.
No, not all providers work with DS Lite.
believe Telekom and Alice something. But Alice is no longer there as far as I know.
Telekom does DS, not DS Lite.
Alice doesn't exist anymore. It was a Telekom Italia brand, initially in Hamburg. Telekom Italia bought HanseNet, a local provider in Hamburg, and introduced this brand. HanseNet was later sold to Telefonica. O2 also belongs to Telefonica. The Alice brand was discontinued in 2012. I don't know whether Telefonica does DS Lite or DS. As far as I know, Vodafone makes DS Lite in the cable network (formerly Kabel Deutschland). But the FTTH provider Wilhelm Tel, which is widespread in the Hamburg area, also makes DS Lite.
