Ssh to your device, use winscp its easier. Edit settings.json, set bindrcp ip to 0.0.0.0
To retain the changes turnoff transmission before edit and then re-enable it. This way the changes to settings will persist across reboots
Thanks for the quick answer. I edited settings.json but it seems that I still need to connect via WD web UI first to have access to transmission interface. I cannot connect directly to it anymore.

There are a few things to change.
- Change
rpc-bind-addressto "0.0.0.0" so that it no longer listen only to 127.0.0.1 and we don't need the reverse proxy of the NAS - Change
rpc-portto 9091 (I don't know why WD used 9092, I change back to 9091 which is the default one) - You can also change
rpc-urlback to /transmission/ which is the default value - Change
rpc-whitelistto "192.168.1.*" to allow all host in that network to access to the web UI
I didn't make a backup before my modification (my bad!). I don't remember correctly all of them. But I think they are (please add a comment to confirm).
Wouhou thanks a lot it works !!!!
On OS 5 you can install Transmission manually.
Transmission 1.15 tested and working. Download from
https://fox-exe.ru/WDMyCloud/WDMyCloud-Gen2/Apps-OS5/
Can we confirm this script works properly on a 1st Gen MyCloud (firmware v04.05.00-342)?
Have read reports of bricking and Im wary of trying it.
what version of transmission will this install?
Could you be more specific ? I have the same issue. What did you modify in settings.json ?
