Ive set up port forwarding from the external ports to the internal IP addresses. My Internet connection has a static IP address. Ive set them up before with other routers without issue I have webcams on my LAN that I wish to monitor remotely. Port forwarding Netgear D7800 is not working.

Apparently it always uses ports 80 and 443 on the drive, you just have to pick new ports that you want to use that you then route to those ports on the drive.Maybe I was being silly for setting it up the way I did at first, and we are supposed to know that the ports it actually uses never changes. The correct way to set it up is like this.Global Port Range 8080 - 8080 and Base Host Port 80Global Port Range 8443 - 8443 and Base Host Port 443By changing the Base Host Ports to 80 and 443 the My Cloud was then able to have a direct connection. Click the Port Forwarding radio button.When clients cannot access an FTP Server thats connected to a Linksys router, the ports for FTP have to be forwarded to the server for the request to be.I was setting up port forwarding to have the Global Port Range be 8080 - 8080 and the Base Host Port for that be 8080 for the unsecure ports and the Global Port Range be 8443 - 8443 and the Base Host Port for that be 8443 for the secure ports.This is incorrect. Click on Port Forwarding / Port Triggering.
Your picture below shows that the external port 80 is closed.I’m trying to stream video from the NAS to my ipad with VLC and Vidon players outside of my home network but to no avail. Some routers have a built’in FTP server (to access a disk attached to the router for example).If you need to access your NAS with FTP from the outside, you will need to forward the internal port 21 of your NAS to some external port as well, (8021 for example, or external port 21, if you don’t need this port for your router itself).For the NAS to work OK, you need to forward some external ports to both internal ports 80 and 443 of the NAS.
