Hello all.  I've tried setting up my email notifications so many different ways with no luck.  I've gone through others' emails for setting up, but still nothing.  I have a Gmail account, but I saw conflicting emails saying it will work with 1.05, and one email saying it won't due to spam filters.  Does anyone know which one is true?  Do I need to update to 1.06?  I'd rather stay with 1.05.  I have RCN isp.  I also opened up ports 465 and 587 as gmail said I should set the settings, and port 25 for isp.  I've seen the following the most, and have tried this....
Login Method :      Account
         User Name : username@gmail.com (tried without gmail.com as well)
         Password :  gmail password
     SMTP Server :     smtp.gmail.com (tried smtp.rcn.com as well)
     Sender E-mail :     username@gmail.com
     Receiver E-mail :     username@gmail.com (I've tried username@hotmail.com as someone else mentioned trying)

Support for gmail was one of the bug fix in FW1.06

Thanks for the clarification Thomas.

FYI - one mistake i did was i setup my device using a static address and i forgot to put an IP address in for DNS.

[chiefnet]

savva,

I have the non-static IP address for the DNS.  I set up the port forwarding with the DNS IP address, is that what you mean?

[savva]

If you use DHCP then you are fine; your router would provide the NAS unit all the addresses that are necessary. To double check go to your status page on the webpage and yours should look something similar to this:
IP Address:  192.168.x.x
Subnet Mask:  255.255.255.0
Gateway IP Address:  192.168.x.x
Mac Address:  xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
DNS1:  192.168.x.x

Post what your settings are aswell.


The other issue that i ran into you already address which was change the receiver's email to something other then gmail (ie: your hotmail).

When you click on test what error message do you get?

Hi,
When I used the receiver e-mail <username@hotmail.com> to get my notifications, I was using ver 1.06 and I did not need opening any other ports. This might sound like a stupid question, but, chifnet, Do you have a hotmail account? The rest of the setup is he same as the one I used.
Good luck, just keep trying. It took me 2 hours to get my printer working with Dns-323.

saava,

My settings were as you noted above, with the DNS1 being the same as the IP address, and IP address being that of the box.  No luck.

My error message is just "Test Result: Failure".  Same message for all different settings I've used.

[chiefnet]

escaramujo,

Yes, I do have a hotmail account, and used that username and account.  Unfortunately, no luck.  I'm not ready to upgrade to 1.06 since 1.05 is running pretty stable and I've seen so many posts of issues with 1.06, so I may wait until 1.07.  Thank you.

[savva]

Chiefnet, just to double check, your DNS should be the same as your Gateway IP Address... is that how yours is?

[chiefnet]

savva,

My mistake when I typed.  You are correct, my Gateway IP and DNS are the same.

[savva]

Last thing i could think of is to do ipconfig /all on your PC and see what information comes up for DNS. I just remembered that some routers provide the ISPs DNS IP address.

If that doesnt work, the only other thing i could thing of is to do a Factory Reset 

[mamurao]

I have tested with gmail and yes it's not compatible. I am with rogers.com provider and using their smpt works fine with the dlink smtp.broadband.rogers.com if your a rogers user

[D-Link Multimedia]

Gmail uses SSL Authentication and a different base port. It is not supported in ANY firmware before 1.06.

[mgrant]

I cannot get 1.06 to talk to gmail. 

The problem seems to be a DNS problem.  Here is a tcpdump packet trace:

10.0.0.1 is my router and from my PC (on the same LAN), an nslookup works fine and reports back:

Code: [Select]

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    gmail-smtp-msa.l.google.com
Address:  216.239.59.109
Aliases:  smtp.gmail.com
If I put the ip address in there, it seems to get farther but it doesn't seem to do a starttls and hence fails.

So I'm perplexed, how do you make the dns-323 talk to a gmail account using version 1.06?
