Salah Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share #5 Posted April 1, 2017 Be aware that this is an Issue: Using any thing in TOS or UELA is a problem. Yes we can hack away but in reality Synology can hack back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hostilian Posted April 1, 2017 Share #9 Posted April 1, 2017 Of course they can hack back but using Quickconnect with a fake Synology is especially bloody stupid.. Most people use their NAS with the loaders and it happily sits and works without ever contacting the Internet (and definitely not Synology and using their services).. When you use Quickconnect, you are effectively TELLING SYNOLOGY that there are boxes out there with dodgy serial numbers and mac addresses. They'll run a little Quickconnect report that will tell them exactly which boxes are legit or not.. With such a report, they are going to want to do something about it. This is only the start of their fightback.. If you're daft enough to try to use Quickconnect, you could very well kill off this project - maybe even this website.. Nice work...

They obivously know about this project as it has been running for years. Since they haven't done anything to prevent "fake" serials to use their services, I guess that the percentage of such users is so low that they simply don't care.

Elpee Posted April 1, 2017 Share #12 Posted April 1, 2017 Why do you guys keep bringing up and chewing this old topic? We don't use QC and our XPEnology community never recommend/ encourage QC usage either. We should end this boring topic here. Period.

Bonebreaker777 Posted April 1, 2017 Share #13 Posted April 1, 2017 So, what would happen to me as a XPEnology user if I would go and buy a Synology product purely for the MAC and SN so I would have the option to use QC? Would it downgrade my current machine status from 'DS3615xs' to whatever the bought SN would belong to or...? Downgrade as in terms of number of HDD places, etc. While I'm here, under what I could find a MAC address change manual or tutorial here? MAC address chance as changing it permanently. Thank you!

bglf83 Posted April 2, 2017 Share #16 Posted April 2, 2017 Why not just either pay for or use a DDNS service? I do this and have no issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billat29 Posted April 2, 2017 Share #21 Posted April 2, 2017 Just to add to the general paranoia : While I was testing a DNS server on my network (and looking at the logs), I found that my box - which has quickconnect off - contacted account.synology.com and another url (I forget) which retrieved my external IP. So they probably have a better idea of how many people are running XPEnology than anyone here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
