Note: While the Synology setup guide recommends loading the BeeStation portal, and then setting up your BeeStation. As your BeeStation will take a while to initialise. We recommend connecting your BeeStation to a network port on your router. Plugging it into a power supply and then switching it on. That way you don’t have to wait so long before you can start to setup your BeeStation.
- Using a computer load your web browser.
- In the address bar type:

- On the BeeStation portal sign in using your Synology account.
