Hello TR community, all day today I have been trying to reconfigure my home set up to make my NAS accessible via http/s. My current set up goes like this (IPs have been changed for security sake).
I have an comcast provided SMC router (model smcd3gnv) at 192.168.0.1 my router (dlink model dgl-4500) resides under it at 192.168.0.2 and then my NAS box (netgear readyNAS untra 4) sits under the router at 192.168.1.10. On both the modem and the router ports 80 and 443 are forwarded to as such: modem forwards ports 80 and 443 to the router which in turn forwards those ports to the NAS.
My external IP is linked via dlinkddns (which is affiliated with dyndns). Which settings look to be taking my external IP and linking it to my routers IP (to be honest I dont fully understand the settings here and there are no descriptions of what should go where on the site).
When I type in my url from within my network I am able to access my nas. However when I try the samething from outside my network the connection times out. I suspect port forwarding is to blame. I have tried placing the dlink router in the comcast SMC router/modem’s DMZ and then placing the nas in the dlink’s DMZ but still nothing changes.
Any help would be appreciated.
