hi guys newbie here. so new and such a noob that i have spent many house following many so called guides on manufacturer websites and got nowhere close to being able to set up a ftp server.
My goal at the end is this: To be able to setup my d link sharecenter as a ftp server and be able to have myself and a cousin access it over the internet. So far all i managed to do the first time around was to have my nas disappear from my network devices list and get it back somehow. Now the second time around after buying a Nighthawk x6 i changed some setting for the router and the sharecenter, forwarded some ports and created some Dynamic DDNS via some free account in the netgear UI. Apparently i did it over here but had trouble verifying it in my sharecenter UI.
It says in my sharecenter UI that i have a FTP server running. I have no idea what that even means. I have no clue how to access it. It gives me some IP address there which is different from the IP my router says which is my sharecenter then there is the IP address which the DDNS IP address which is god knows used for what.
So i understand that i am very far away. Maybe you guys can get me closer. Or maybe in the correct direction with a noob friendly + idiot proof youtube guy/video or online guide.
Appreciate all the help i can get
