HTTPS mess-up

[Vesemir7 1]

Hello folks,

long time Synology NAS installed base, old DS-418 play unit, completely up-to-date, DSM-wise.

 

Also Emby up to date with premiere from a few years ago, I was trying to fix an HTTPS issue fiddling with the DSM reverse proxy to fully publish Emby to the internet to share it with some friends and I think I made it worse, now I can only use Emby local within my LAN. At least before the changes, I could use it via the app on my android phone, but not anymore now.

 

How can I start to ask for help?

HI there, what makes you think you made it worse?

Because before the edits, I could access it at least with Emby connect when I was using 5g on my phone, now not anymore. 

 

Only wifi over LAN.

 

Regardless of the before, I would like to repoint everything to a config where I can connect to it via HTTPS with a single pointer over LAN or over 5g, so that I can also present the web link to friends over the Internet (with custom logins of course)

Have you seen: Connecting from Client Apps?

Before I go into full troubleshooting mode again, I'd like to understand which is the best config to aim for, in my case, if you don't mind, guys.

 

I use Emby almost exclusively and even when I do remotely over other wifi or 5g, it's always from my phone with the Emby app for android, occasionally from my laptop. Generally the pointer is quickconnect though, not a public exposed port.

 

Since occasionally I would like to be able to just invite a friend or two to watch a specific content that I normally put in a dedicated sub-library and for which I create separate logins, I can't count for them to use any quick connect of course, it would have to be - at best my knowledge - an exposed service, ideally over SSL, going though the router and straight into the Emby instance installed on the NAS.

What would be the best config to achieve it?If I could avoid messing too much with the router it'd be best, as in the event I change provider I'd have to factor that in.

Cheers
