Assign the NAS a fixed IP and setup the DDNS

It is recommended to assign a fixed IP to Turbo NAS. (Since you may need to open the ports of services on your NAT router and forward them to the LAN IP address of Turbo NAS and you do not want it to be changed.) Go to ‘System Administration‘ > ‘Network‘ > ‘TCP/IP‘ and click on to bring up the TCP/IP property window. Assign a static IP address for your NAS, besides, be sure to set the DNS server address as well or your will not be able to connect to the trackers.

Assign a static IP address for your NAS

Most ISP will provide one or more dynamic public IP for Internet connection. (This applies to the situation that the IP sharing router acquires WAN IP from ISP by PPPoE or DHCP connection.) To set up a server, a fixed IP address or URL is necessary so that users can easily recall the server address to connect to. When a dynamic IP address is used, you can get a router that supports DDNS or simply use the built-in DDNS function on QNAP NAS, and through registering an easy-to-remember domain name from any DDNS provider to easily identify Turbo NAS on the Internet, e.g. myqnap.dyndns.com.

Setup port forwarding on your router

If your Turbo NAS is located behind the NAT router, you need to open the ports of the services on the NAT router and forward these ports to the fixed LAN IP of Turbo NAS. This function is available on most routers found in the market and is often known as “Port Forwarding“, “NAT Server” or “Virtual Server“. Take BT download function as an example, you have to forward the port range of BT service to the LAN IP of Turbo NAS, e.g. forward TCP port range 6881~6999 to 192.168.1.34. When the NAT router receives packets from the WAN side to the external port 6881~6999, the router will forward these packets to the LAN IP of Turbo NAS. Moreover, to connect to the Turbo NAS at home from WAN, you can simply forward traffic coming from port 8080 (the default management port) to the LAN IP of Turbo NAS. (See below for an example setup on a Baffalo router.
