With Buffalo’s WebAccess, you can access your TeraStation from anywhere in the world with an 
Internet connection.  It’s easy to access your files, or share them with other people, wherever they 
may be.
WebAccess 
WebAccess is set up from within the 
Configuration GUI.  First, select ‘Web Access’, 
and then ‘Service Setup’ from the menu on the 
left.
To use WebAccess, set ‘Web Access Service’ to 
Enable...
You may enable SSL Encryption if desired.  
Using ‘BuffaloNAS.com’ is recommended.  
Otherwise, you’ll have to manage your own DNS 
settings.
‘Auto-Configure Firewall’ is also recommended if 
your router supports UPnP (most do since 2001).  
If you choose not to enable this, you must manually configure your router and firewall to forward 
internal port 9000 to the Internet.
Choose a name for your BuffaloNAS account and a password (“key”).  This name is the name that 
will be used to access your TeraStation and to share with your friends.  The password for this 
protects other people from using it, so picking a strong password is recommended.
Click Help in the top right of the window for detailed information on each setting.
