some Synology DiskStations support certain 3G/4G dongles to go online via them – does this make them a 3G/4G router?
https://www.synology.com/en-global/compatibility?search_by=products&category=usb_3g_4g_dongles&p=1&product_bays=1&product_name=DS115j And can you operate the NAS as a router then? I.e. can it “share” its Internet connection through LAN or WIFI?

The problem started with a prior firmware update, and I was unable to…

my Synology DS713+ now runs a “hibiscus-server”, and my wrapper layer (bash+perl) and also sendxmpp
https://www.synology.com/en-global/products/DS713+ https://www.synology.com/en-global/products/DS715+ – not yet out https://www.synology.com/en-global/products/DS215j of course I would have preferred a DS715+ or DS714+, but they are not available, the DS713+ isn’t really as low power as the DS215j it’s fun to see my bash and Perl scripts to run just the same on an openSUSE machine and on a Synology DiskStation –…
