Setting Up a Port Forward for a Synology DS107 device
When you use a Synology DS107 device you might need to forward some ports in your router. By forwarding ports you allow connection requests coming from the internet to be directed to a Synology DS107 device.
By default routers do not allow incoming network requests. Forwarding ports can work around this limitation.
Before Forwarding a Port
You need to know the following things before you can forward a port:
- The internal IP address of your router.
- The IP address of your NAS.
- Each of the TCP and UDP ports that you need to forward.
Locate Your Router's IP Address
To find your router's IP address the easy way you can use our free Router Detector software. The software is part of our Network Utilities suite of tools and it is completely free to use.
We have a guide you can follow Find Your Router IP Address if you don't want to run the software.
