Title: Internet Access to Share Files
Post by: NewSC on September 06, 2013, 09:57:59 AM

I have set up my Link Station Pro Duo and it works great as long as I am on my own network.
When I try to access the shared files from a remote network thru buffalonas.com I can not find my NAS?
Is there a different setting required for remote networks?

What is your buffalonas.com name, you probably dont have the external port for web access open on your router.

I set port forwarding in my router to enable internal and external port 9000 assigned to the NAS IP address. I could not use Web access from my own network until I set the port. Buffalonas.com accepts my assigned name for the NAS when I enter from my network but times out when accessed from remote network.

Then the port is not open correctly
PM me your buffalonas.com name

How do I open the Port Correctly?
It is set: external port 9000
internal port 9000
protocol both (TCP & UDP)
assigned to NAS IP
enabled

Contact your router manufacturer.
