#SYNOLOGY VPN PLUS SETUP HOW TO#
How to setup a Synology VPN server on a Synology NASīefore we get started installing the Synology VPN Server you will want to make sure you already have DDNS configured on your Synology NAS and familiar with how to do port forwarding on your home router. There are plenty of VPN services available such as NordVPN (which I also use), but you can also setup your own VPN server on your Synology NAS. So even if someone is attempting to hack the public WiFi, your traffic becomes useless to them and thus your emails, chats, web browsing and file transfers are now secure and out of other peoples sight.
The solution would be to use a VPN which will encrypt your traffic between you and the VPN server. In fact it’s so easy for people to eavesdrop and hack a public WiFi that even a 7 year old girl can do it, in under 11 minutes! Web-based portal VPN gives users direct access to company intranet sites and there is even an option to provide employees with browser-based remote desktop access.Public WiFi is something many of use enjoy while we’re at the coffee shop, hotels, airports, libraries and so on, but one thing everyone should or needs to know is that public WiFi is NOT secure. It supports SSTP, OpenVPN, L2TP over IPSec, as well as Synology's own SSL VPN protocol and lightweight desktop client.
VPN Plus allows your Synology Router to host a powerful VPN server that is easy to set up and manage. Under the new program, new and existing owners of Synology's RT1900ac, RT2600ac, and MR2200ac wireless routers can activate perpetual Client VPN Access and Site-to-Site VPN licenses at no additional cost, forever. That is why we are announcing forever free licenses for all previously paid features of our premier VPN server solution, Synology VPN Plus."
