To set up your router to allow external access to the web station of your Synology DiskStation, you will need to configure port forwarding on your router. First, log in to your router's admin interface and locate the port forwarding settings. Then, create a new port forwarding rule for the port used by the web station (default is port 80 for HTTP and port 443 for HTTPS). Set the internal IP address of your Synology DiskStation as the destination for the port forwarding rule. Once the port forwarding rule is set up, external users will be able to access the web station of your Synology DiskStation using your public IP address. Keep in mind that enabling external access may pose security risks, so make sure to implement strong password protection and consider using HTTPS for secure communication. **

The choice of which Synology NAS is better suited depends on the specific needs and requirements of the user. If the user needs a more powerful and high-performance NAS for demanding tasks such as 4K video editing, virtualization, or large-scale data storage, then a higher-end model like the Synology DS1621xs+ or DS1821+ would be better suited. On the other hand, if the user has more basic storage and backup needs for home or small office use, a more affordable and entry-level model like the Synology DS220+ or DS420+ would be a better fit. It's important to consider factors such as storage capacity, processing power, and budget when choosing the right Synology NAS. **
