Does anyone here has successfully configured Synology NAS to work with Maxis Home Fibre Internet?

I have requested from Maxis for public IP and have configured the necessary port forwarding but I am still unable to get the following to work
1) DDNS (registered with Synology)
2) VPN (using Synology App)
3) Download Station to dlwnload YouTube

What else should I configure?

Thanks in advanced.

what should i get if i wan to backup my file and stream HD movie that i download to my ipad, so that i can lay on bed and watch my drama!!

I want to configure one way sync between Synology and QNAP NASes but there are very little information with both Synology and QNAP website.

Does anyone know the configuration steps?

Thank you.

What are the parameters to fill for Synology and QNAP?

I don't want to setup sharing VPN, just to make my DS214 connect to VPN for download.
1 more thing, is it possible if my NAS is connected to vpn, but i can still setup ddns to external access my my NAS?

Hi, i had subscribe TorGuard VPN service, the speed has improved, but just about 10~20%, still cannot fully speed up.
I found out i cannot connect the vpn with UDP port, any solution?
I think UDP may offer faster speed for my download.

Guys, i accidentally deleted ALL my personal files when attempting to sync between my synology NAS and my laptop using Cloudstation. Is there anyway for me to undo this or restore the files and folders?

The promoters told me get Enterprise grade drive instead
Because their WD red/purple drive that use on CCTV keep dying or bad sector iirc, even after replaced new drive.

Had one WD RED/AV-GP 3TB, bad sector appeared within a year even it's just light usage(same as they said), i rma-ed it and eventually sold it off, and bought Toshiba 3TB instead.
So fat both of the Toshiba drives does not have sign of hiccup yet.

Hi guys
I just discovered this tread

I am planning to buy synology previously, but after research I think better if i do DIY style (buy second had used PC and install TrueNas)
And I require good enough processor and at same time energy efficient
What do you think about i3 4160? is it ok?

Planning to use it as my home Plex server & media storage

Is it safe to enable QuickConnect   

guys where do you buy your HDD?

i have 2x 12TB Ironwold (1 dead) ; can I xfer to to let say 2x6TB? Im using Synology DS423+?

create new pool on the 3rd and 4th drive?

never owned a synology. but i did own a qnap. im over with those prebuilt branded nas. i think truenas is better. the software is free and can use with the hardware u put together. its zfs which is the golden standard for NAS.

that said i dont think syn/qnap/asus will die anytime soon. too many newbs buy that cauz they dont know or dont want to know how to build the hardware 

anyway before i migrated i got used to truenas first. once i understood how to use, setup and maintenance, then i switched over. for backup i recommend a 2nd nas to do the rsync to it with truenas. Or what people recommend is the zfs replication (i havent managed to get that to work to my satisfaction).
for qnap some model they had some defects. my 653a was affected. the mosfet up and died. cauz cant boot up the nas. its a known issue.

synology i havent heard anything bad. yeah just clean dust every now and then. set automation for scrub to monthly. long smart once a month. short smart once weekly.

backup depends on u. i do mine 1-2 times a year.

i use 4 drives in raidz1. If 1 drive dies, it goes to degraded mode. if 2 drives die, the whole raid is f***d. but as long as i have a backup its not game over. so i wouldnt worry about raidz1 its good enuff.
anyway ur situation ur warranty about expire. what about the software? at some point they cut u off from updates. with truenas u dont have this issue. eventually a new truenas will have a higher hardware requirement, but that isnt very often. also u can swap out parts as needed.

the thing is about these qnaps/syn etc. they got warranty, but if ever u need to send in repair, its expensive as hell to ship for repair or whatever. also remote support? totally useless.

I ended up just order another 12TB Ironwolf but this time from local seller MONO DIGITAL.. I've bought stuffs from them before... they claim its original new unit..

not sure how to verify once I got it though...
