Why do my files run through the WD servers to my MyBook Live?

I think it uses WD servers to find your NAS.   But if you use Port Forwarding configuration, it does not use WD servers to move data, only for finding the connection.

If you use Relay mode, then yes, it must use WD’s servers, but the term “Relay” does tell you that it is using WD servers.
