Forwarding Ports for a QNAP TS-439 Pro II+ device
When you use a QNAP TS-439 Pro II+ device you may need to forward ports in your router. A port forward allows incoming connection requests from the internet to go straight to a QNAP TS-439 Pro II+ device.

- Your router's IP address.
- The internal IP address of your NAS.
