Hello all I'm trying to set up my axis camera and axis video server with a portable WiFi hotspot router in order to send emails when the camera is trigger and takes a picture. My current set up is: Portable hotspot router with data sim Axis M2014-E video server connected to router via ethernet cable I've set up the SMTP settings on the video server to use gmail in order to send the email: mail server: smtp.gmail.com server port: 465 use authentication: checked user name: 'my gmail address' password: 'my gmail password' smtp Authentication: 'checked' Weakest method allowed: login but everytime I try to send a test email, I'm getting back 'Failed'. I've looked in the video server system log and its showing: 'Could not start smtp session with server smtp.gmail.com:456:Connection timed out' 'Failed to send mail' So no luck with the emails.... I was wondering if anyone has ever tried to do this before or has this kind of set up themselves? I'm thinking that the connection timed out means that the data connection on the router might not be strong enough but I'm a bit confused by that if its the case because I can easily send a quick email from my phone fromm the same location, on the same network as the data sim being used in the hotspot router. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
