I have enabled the 'Less secure Apps' (https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps) option on my gmail account. Now it works. Giorgio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

itaishi 0 Posted February 6, 2016 Still no go nothing have same problem. my DVR (16 Channels) system is V4.02.R11.31152053.10001 (i guess its chineis , non brand one). Build Date 2013-09-14 14:31:26 NatStatus DisEnable (what id that suppose to mean ????) i can connect to the DVR with my mobile online. i could connect in the past from my PC Online. but i never could email Alert or even TEST. i use Google Email already use : port 25 , to aspmx.l.google.com SMTP SERVER port 465 , with SSL checked, to smtp.gmail.com. (this is google instruction: https://support.google.com/a/answer/176600?hl=en) (used less secure password: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255) no success at all with sending emails i guess it something with the DVR no properly configured with network. The DVR IP is local and Static, with 8.8.8.8 as the primary DNS Server. i can view the cams in another PC in the LAN . any way to check it? do any of the other "NETSERVICES" must be configured? RTSP? ARSP ? DDNS? PPPOE? FTP? UPNP? NTP? DHCP? maybe must do a firmware update (its very risky an there is no brand behind it). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
