Accessing Your Cloud Remotely

A personal cloud is your content, at home, secure and under your control. Unlike public 
clouds, a personal cloud allows you to keep all of your content in one safe place on your 
home network. Share files, stream media, and access your content anywhere, from your PC 
or Mac computer and from mobile devices. No monthly fees. No mysterious location for 
your data. Keep your videos, music, photos, and files safe at home and always with you. 

This chapter explains how to set up the WD My Cloud Mirror device for remote access and 
describes some of the ways you can take advantage of its many capabilities. 

Before you can use your WD My Cloud Mirror device remotely, it must be enabled for cloud 
access (enabled is the default). To verify that the WD My Cloud device is enabled for remote 
access and to check the status of its remote connection(s), see “Cloud Access” on page 
108.

Once you’ve enabled cloud access on the WD My Cloud Mirror device, use the following 
steps to give remote access capability to your device users. 

1.   On the navigation bar, click the Cloud Access icon.
