I have set up USB sharing on my router. I can connect via the local network, but no device can connect via the internet. I also have dynamic DNS set up. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

If you have CGNAT you can't connect to FTP USB sharing via internet, you need Public IPv4 or Dynamic IP.

Hello@uginko ,

Welcome to our community.

 

If you failed to access the FTP remotely
    1) Ensure Internet FTP is enabled:
    2) Ensure the router WAN IP address is a public IP address as rane61 mentioned.
    3) Use DDNS if the router WAN IP address changes dynamically.
