Success with using 931L to send photos using email!! Here's "how" I got mine to work (and worked for 3 diff dcs 931L)
a) remove from the mydlink.com page....that is I don't care about seeing the camera...and so deleted the camera from this service that dlink gives you
b) hardwired the camera to the router to set things up
c) rebooted the camera (in the maintenance settings in the web setup)
d) made sure "none" was my choices for "motion sense", email, etc.....I added back that later
e) Uploaded new... but old Firmware..i used the 1.04B1 that you can get from the dlink support page
f) then....I used a new email settings...that is, I have gmail (no longer seems to work), Hotmail (never did) and because my home connection is from Comcast, I have them as email provider...
....so for the email settings part
I) smtp.comcast.net
ii) port 587
iii) sending email is yourusername@comcast.net
iv) and for user name I used only yourusername (no @ email thing at the end)
v) I used startls
WOW... (I tihink I got in trouble by doing a firmware upgrade using wifi, then also MyLink, then also static IP. I only care about getting a photo emailed to me of some motion, so I don't need the static IP or the fancy Mydlink stuff to look at my cameras)
