External internet access to the USB key on my Internet Box 3 router

I connected a USB key to my Internet Box 3 router and I want to access this USB key via the internet outside my home, e.g. ftp, http or other to retrieve files from this USB key.

Would there be a possibility to do this?

the USB key does not seem to have a specific IP address and I was not able to do Port Forwarding on it.

Thanks for help.

      Many thanks for the very quick response. however… I can’t really do it and I ask myself the question what did I do wrong.

      When establishing the connection, my VPN client (on MS Windows 10) gives me the following message after several tests and checks:

      Some details about my environment.

      - My environment is in English.

      - I am running MS Windows 11 on my Dell XPS desktop and MS Windows 10 on my Surface.

      - My Surface is connected via hotspot to my Pixel connected via 4G (and not on my local network).

      - I pinged my DynDNS and it responds.

      Any suggestions to help me move forward?
