My DDNS
By enabling the myQNAPcloud DDNS service, you can connect to the network services on
your NAS by using your specified internet address. To change your myQNAPcloud DDNS
domain name, click the "here" link on the page. Your recent DDNS information will be shown
here and you can click the "Update" button to refresh the result.
Cloud Portal
With the Cloud Portal, web-based NAS services (including File Station, Web Server, Photo
Station, Music Station, Secure File Station, Secure Web Server, Secure Photo Station and
Secure Music Station) can be published to http://www.myqnapcloud.com. By enabling the
NAS services here, they will be opened for remote access even if they are not published.
Enable the myQNAPcloud DDNS service and the NAS will automatically notify the
myQNAPcloud server if the WAN IP address of the NAS has changed. To use the
myQNAPcloud service, make sure the NAS has been connected to a UPnP router and the
Internet.
Note:

The myQNAPcloud name of each QNAP NAS is unique. One myQNAPcloud name can
only be used for one NAS.

A registered myQNAPcloud name will expire in 120 days if your NAS remains offline
within that period. Once the name is expired, it will be released for registration by
other users.

For My DDNS, if the default port is not used, you will need to specify the port number
when accessing network services.

published, the service will be inaccessible even if the corresponding icon is shown on the
myQNAPcloud website (http://www.myQNAPcloud.com.)
