Over at least the last 3 days there have been 1000s of login attempts to my Synology NAS.

 

I remotely login to the NAS myself so I cant just turn QuickConnect off.

 

Is there a way to allow only certain devices to access remotely, or is there a better way to stop this?

 

I would like to stop the attempts, not just ensure that every attempt fails.

1. look at setting up the firewall, good tutorial here: https://mariushosting.com/synology-how-to-correctly-set-up-firewall-on-dsm-7/

 

2. enable auto block, then at least they only get x attempts before being blocked

 

 

 

With the firewall thing, my NAS only allows connections from with NZ so if its not a NZ IP its blocked, except if its the VPN connection.
