Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

The router doesn't have file shares, so it doesn't show up on file manager. You most likely need to connect to that with a browser by IP-address. But as port forwarding can have severe security issues I really suggest that you learn more on what you're trying to do and understand the implications before poking holes to your firewall.
I'm not comfortable to provide step-by-step instructions since doing that wrong can cause all kinds of havoc on your network (and the whole apartment if you happen to have IoT-things around).
I assure that I have researched this for a long time and that I know how to protect this open port.
The fact that you said "my router doesn't appear on file explorer" tells us everything we need to know about your skill level. You don't know the first thing about "protecting this open port" and you aren't qualified to assess the security risks of what you are trying to do.
