Now open your browser and type in your HTTPS/SSL certificate like this https://karrio.yourname.synology.me In my case it’s https://karrio.mariushosting.synology.me If everything goes right, you will see the Karrio Login page. Type in your own Email and Password that you have previously created at STEP 17, then click Log in. Follow the instructions in the image below.
