Port forwarding on hub 5

[chalklands]

Are there any clear instructions on setting this up that actually work?

I can connect fine to my device (EMBY server) locally but when I try and connect externally I get an 'Unable to reach server error'.

EMBY server is on my Synology DS218 NAS

Have you enabled remote access?

What did you set the NAS's IP address to? You then forward TCP Port 8096 and 8920 to it.

It's working now. It was upnp that needed to be turned on.

Athough UPnP is safe it can facilitate insecure connections. I have disabled mine and if any port forwarding is needed I'll do it manually.
