Model: Archer C3150  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 2.1.0.0.9.1

Hello

 

I have previously had succes in wake my synology NAS through WOL over the internet (WAN). 

 

Everything is enabled and setup, as i mentioned before it used to work but with another cheap router. Now it only works on LAN side. 

What am i missing here?? 

 

I have setup under "NAT FORWARDING" and under "VIRTUAL SERVERS"  a rule with port 9 open pointed to my NAS internal IP address and with UDP protocol.. 

 

Please advice..

 

Br Hamid

I got it to work. 

 

In the ARP and MAC binding I entered the NAS information and after that it worked. 

 

And yes I have always been able to access the NAS renmotely both with mobile app and with DDNS WAN name..

@Hrohibil 

 

Do you want to wake this NAS up remotely?

 

Does it work on LAN side? In other word, can this NAS be awaken by a local device?

 

Generally speaking, you only need open the port used by the specific service on the router, then it will work; Please verify the virtual server settings; and check the IP/gateway and DNS info of the NAS. 

 

Nice day.

Yes it works from LAN side. 

I tested from various applications from both mobile and pc. 

And as I mentioned it used to work over internet as well but with another very low budget router.

@Hrohibil 

 

Please ensure that the IP/gateway and DNS server obtained by the devices are valid. 

 

And please show us a screenshot of the status page and the virtual server settings page.

 

Besides, are you able to access these devices with the WAN IP and the port number remotely?

 

Good day.
