If you have read some of my other posts you’d know that I’ve got a couple of Network Attached Storage devices from QNAP<\/a> and Synology<\/a>. I’ve settled on using the Synology as my primary array with the QNAP as a backup. I recently moved into a new apartment with 100mbit fibre Internet and this has allowed me to use some of the server features of the Synology and shut down a couple of my dedicated servers I have hosted overseas.<\/p>\n I needed to FTP remotely into my device and I’ve set up FTP servers behind firewalls since the late 90s and thought this would be a piece of cake. Turns out it is, if you know the right buttons to push! The following is a guide on how to get Synology FTP with an Airport Extreme firewall working.<\/p>\n Tech\u00a0Information<\/p>\n There are two parts to this setup, the first is configuring the built-in FTP server on the Synology and the second is to configure the port forwarding on the Airport Extreme.<\/p>\n Setting up the FTP server on the Synology.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Step 1. <\/strong><\/p>\n Login to your Synology as an Administrator and open the Control Panel.<\/p>\n\n
