mount.nfs: Connection timed out

I am trying to mount a Synology NAS drive to my Ubuntu Server via NFS via this tutorial from Synology.

I completed these steps but after sudo mount I only get mount.nfs: Connection timed outback. I assumed it was a problem with either ufwor the Synology firewall so I disabled them both for troubleshooting but it still didn't work. Now I assume I got my settings in the DSM wrong but after checking them a few times I can't see anything wrong.

The problem is I don't even know where to start troubleshooting. Is there a way to narrow down the reason for this problem?

To get a complete picture here are my settings in the Synology DMS where the blacked out IP is the IP of my Ubuntu Server:

Settings 1 Synology

Settings 2 Synology

And here are the used commands and the result:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install nfs-common
sudo mount -t nfs ip_from_NAS:/volume1/media /nfs/temp-share
mount.nfs: Connection timed out

So yeah if someone could help me out here that would be amazing, I don't even know where to start troubleshooting. If there's more info to post I'll gladly provide it but I also don't know what is needed, so anyway thanks for any help in advance.

After spending multiple hours and checking everything a few times I still got the wrong IP adress for my NAS in the mount command. I got the right IP now and it works. Don't be like me.
