Any ideas?
Get a pi zero w and setup a VPN so your NAS appears as a local
devices when you log in from the internet.
You can set the firewall to only allow access to the NAS if you want.
They cost about £17 with a PSU.
You could even put your NAS disk in a USB case and use the pi as a
NAS server if speed isn't a problem.
Many routers have built in VPN servers - and for that matter can share
a USB HDD over the network. The Pi may not be needed at all.

Most routers are full of bugs and security holes so I wouldn't trust
them. What was the last time you got a security fix for your router?
I've had 3 updates to its firmware in the last 2 years.
