Hi all, I have been trying to set up my Synology NAS so it can be accessed over the internet.  I have followed all instructions, opened port 5000 for DSM access and also set up DDNS, setting in DSM show everything is running fine,logs also suggest that DDNS is working fine,  I still can't access it, any clues where I am going wrong? I am able to ping the host name from within the network.
Thanks

Synology have a VPN application in the DiskStation software. I would suggest having a look at that and setting that up for remote access.

That way you only have a couple of ports to forward (depending on VPN type) to the NAS, none of which will give public access to the DiskStation web interface.
