MyCloud remote access through Windows 10 and Sky Router

I have set up a WD My Cloud 2 TB (model WDBCTL0020HWT-EESN) and have mapped it on three Windows computers on the same home network through a Sky router, local access works very well.
I can access the folders remotely on the My Cloud drive by using an app on an iPhone or iPad, but cannot access these when I use a laptop with Windows 10 using a browser (Firefox or Google Chrome) because I get an error message telling me that the email address or password is wrong, I have added different email addresses using the WD settings screen to test this and I am sure that the credentials are correct. Please can someone let me have detailed instructions to set up remote access through a browser or provide an alternative method of accessing the folders from a remote location.
Thank you
