I hope my explanation above of the three methods I use answer this question? I would like to see you connect to the Synology NAS without the VPN - just to test.Ĭheck the port settings there as well. Have you tried issuing a Telnet command into the NAS by IP without the VPN? What happens when you try to connect without the VPN?Īre you using the default port settings within the ASUS router? Work internet - Home modem - Home router - Synology NAS - Access Using method 2 the routing appears to be:
Work internet - Home modem - Home router - STOP Using method 1 the routing (using my limited knowledge about this sort of thing): If I disregard that it works fine when actually at home the procedure is the same between 1 and 2, except that I connect to a different VPN server (although both are physically located at my home).

Entering the credentials gives access to the music folder on my NAS from This PC and it is assigned station M: Instead of the error message is a window where I'm asked to enter login details for a user account on the NAS. Entering the credentials gives access to the music folder on my NAS from This PC and it is assigned station M:ģ - If I do the same at home, I follow the same steps (except I now connect to my home network and do not connect to the VPN server obviously).
The error message that appears is in Norwegian, but say something like "Cannot access \\192.168.1.111\music the network path was not found".Ģ - If I do the same but connect to the Synology VPN server instead of the Asus router VPN Server the message I see instead of the error message is a window where I'm asked to enter login details for a user account on the NAS. Then connect to my VPN server so that when checking and looking at "Your Public IPv4 is" I can see the IP at my home.Īfter that I open a Windows Explorer window and go to Computer before clicking Map Network Drive and continue with the tutorial located here: DiskStation Manager - Knowledge Base | Synology Inc. My objective is to gain access to my music folder at the NAS and I would like to have this folder mapped as station M: when opening "This PC" There are three ways I've tried to accomplish this:ġ - The procedure I follow is to connect to internet at work.

What happens when you try errors? Are you trying to connect via ip or name the problem will be its on another subnet so your pc wont know how to reach itI must admit I do not fully understand what you ask here. Therefore, I'd like to use the Asus router VPN server instead. This leads me to suspect that there is some firewall rule that should be applied to allow traffic from the Asus router to the NAS.Īlthough a quick fix could be to just use the Synology VPN server instead, it is not ideal as it puts unnecessary load on the NAS among other things. When connecting to it, instead of the Asus router VPN server, I am able to map a network folder (or drive) using the above-mentioned tutorial from Synology. The Synology NAS also has the possibility to host a VPN server. To access it from work I have to connect to website. I can however not connect to my NAS located at 192.168.1.111. I am then again connected to my own VPN server at home so that I for example can access my Asus router on the IP 192.168.1.1 I am connected to internet at work using my private laptop. Just to clarify - are you trying to access the NAS via your company's VPN?
