Turn Time Capsule 3tb into a NAS

So I have a Time Capsule with a 3 tb HDD and I'm using it as a router and a network storage. So my question is, can I change the settings so I can access it from another network like for example from work?

First of all, the Time Capsule was not designed to be a NAS, and it won't work very well if you try to use it that way. That being said.......it might be possible to access the Time Capsule from a remote location over the Internet......IF.......


1) You have the Time Capsule connected to a simple modem......the kind that has only one Ethernet port.


2) You have a Static Public IP address supplied to you from your Internet Service Provider. Normally, this would mean that you have a business account with your provider.


Check to see if your network might meet these requirements and post back on that.
