I have had a Seagate Central NAS system for several years - and use it for backing up some of the PCs on my network and also for occasional remote access to my media files when away from home - mainly using the Tappin app on mobile devices. I have recently discovered that Seagate stopped supporting remote access, and turned off the Tappin app in early April. I guess that a number of readers of these NGs must be affected by this, and wondered whether anyone has found a solution - other than using cloud storage.
