Problem with reaching my network.

[grn12]

Hello good people of AnandTech !

I have almost a month to begin having problems reaching my NAS in my home network from outside, such as mobile or my job.

I started by replacing the router, then began to replace the cables and switches, then I decided to go down the software level and test myself forward.

Here is what i've tried:

* Port Forwarding specific ports.
* Deactivate all firewalls.
* Use diffrent DDNS Services to try to connect.
* Run my DMZ on my NAS IP.
* Remote connect to my router via it's own DDNS, failed.

Hardware:
* Router: ASUS RT-AC87U
* NAS: Synology DS213
* Switch: Netgear ProSafe 5 1gb

I cant figure this out, i work as a computer technican on a daily basis, i'm not a network engineer but i use to solve this kind of problems pretty easily, the only was i can reach my NAS is via Synology's QuickConnect, that is port 80 based, and i'll guess that is why i succed, but it's really slow and i want full functionallity on my NAS.

I'm hoping some of you out there can help me think outside the box, because i'm completly out of ideas here.

Regards
Tommy

Do you have any kind of access lists or is there security blocking you?

Port 80 or not is not going to affect speed.

Synology may be able to help you with what ports you need to have open and methods to improve speed.

Review your router logs for errors.

Try connecting to your router via IP, not just DDNS domain name, and check your router logs again.
