Actiontec Network Attached Storage Device User Manual
Using the Web Browser from the Internet
This is identical to using the Web browser from the network. But remember:
• The Internet IP address must be used to connect to the NAS Device, not the
LAN IP address.
• If the port number used by the NAS Device has been changed from the
default (80), specify the correct port number when connecting. For exam-
ple, if the port is 8080, and the Internet IP address is 203.70.212.52, enter
the following as the browser's IP address:
http://203.70.212.52:8080
Remote Management
Connection via the Web browser from the Internet is the same as connecting via
the network. But remember:
• The Internet IP address must be used to connect to the NAS Device, not the
LAN IP address.
• If the port number used by the NAS Device has been changed from the
default (80), specify the correct port number when connecting. For exam-
ple, if the port is 8080, and the Internet IP address is 203.70.212.52, enter
the following as the browser's IP address:
http://203.70.212.52:8080
Once connected to the NAS Device via the Internet, all the Web-based manage-
ment features are available.
However, the “Browse” button on the Shares screen only allows Web-based file
browsing. (If using Internet Explorer on Windows, network users can browse
shares using Windows Explorer.)
FTP (File Transfer Protocol
An FTP client can also be used to upload and download files from the Internet.
To do this, port forward the FTP port (port 21) on the router or gateway to the IP
address of the NAS Device.
