Remote access to the Keenetic web interface by its KeenDNS domain name.

Use the KeenDNS registered domain name to connect to the Keenetic web interface. Once connected, go to the 'Applications' page and click on the connected disk entry.

The built-in file manager will appear, where you will see all folders on the disk.

With the built-in file manager, you can:

Remote access via WebDAV connection.

From KeeneticOS version 3.4, the WebDAV protocol support is implemented to work via KeenDNS — our cloud-based domain name service.

You will be able to access files and folders of your USB drive connected to your Keenetic router remotely at

https://{keendns-name}/webdav/

To remotely access files and folders on your USB drive, you need to run a web browser (or a file manager with WebDAV support) on the client device and set up a connection to your Keenetic. Using a web browser to connect, you can only browse and download files. Connecting from a file manager via the Internet to a USB drive will allow you to add, delete, copy, move files and folders just like on a local device.

For more information on the configuration and use of WebDAV, see Connecting to a USB drive with WebDAV.

To set up the WebDAV server on a Keenetic router, go to the 'Applications' menu. In the 'Private cloud' section, turn on the 'Allow access from the Internet' option. In the 'Users and access' subsection, enable the 'WebDAV' option for the user you want to allow remote access and then click 'Select folder' to specify the desired folder on the USB drive.

Now go back to the 'Applications' page. By default, the WebDAV server is disabled. To enable the server, move the switch to the 'Enabled' state.

Next, you need to establish a remote connection to the WebDAV server. This can be done through a web browser or a file manager that supports the WebDAV protocol. The choice of software depends on the operating system and the type of device (mobile device or desktop PC) from which the connection will be made. We recommend using a file manager so that you can delete, move or add a file to the USB drive. If you only need access to files, use the easiest and most accessible option, your Internet browser. Examples are shown in the Connecting to a USB drive with WebDAV instructions.

For example, access via WebDAV from an Android mobile device:

Remote access via SSTP connection.

You can set up an SSTP VPN server in your Keenetic router. It allows the remote connection of clients to your local network.

Configure the SSTP server according to the instruction SSTP VPN server. For example:

Then, for remote access to the server, you need to configure the SSTP client. The SSTP client can be:

After successfully connecting to the SSTP VPN server, set up network access to a USB drive connected to the Keenetic. For example, on Windows, launch the 'Run' application or the 'Explorer'. In the address bar, enter the local IP address of the Keenetic after '\\' symbols (in our example it is \\192.168.1.1).

If 'Anonymous Access' is turned off when you set up USB sharing on the 'Windows Network' page, you will be prompted to enter your login and password. In this case, you need to specify the account information to access your Windows home network and USB drives via SMB/CIFS protocol.

For information on accessing files and folders from a mobile device, please refer to the instructions in 'Accessing USB storage files from an Android device'.
