    you need to have the ethernet cable plugged into the WAN, and under WAN services.. the DNS server box needs to be filled in.. mine is the same as the gateway box... 192.168.0.1 for my dlink router

    other than that

    go into system and notification, and fill out normally and i used port 587 for gmail

    everything is working and its a pleasure now

    thank you for the DNS tip, it fixed everything.. thank you

    You can use any DNS You want - I usually use for the first DNS entry my providers one and for the second entry the ip adress of opendns - and Yes, without DNS entry theres no way how the domain name can be translated into a ip adress.

    Hello Peter

    So to make sure I understand, is this from routers DNS Entry or settings in the N5200 area?

    the router is usually the 1st dns ip, open a run command and type ipconfig /all and it should show you yours.

    Re: (How to setup) Email notification with GMAIL

    There are more options to do this.
    You can set different DNS entries in Your Router and the point the first DNS entry in Your N5200 to Your router and if You want set additional DNS entries in the N5200
    or
    don't use Your router as DNS in the N5200 and set the different DNS entries in the N5200.

    The advantage if You use Your router as DNS in Your N5200 is, that if the DNS is changes You have to change it only on one place - the router

    There are many options, but the important thing is to set at least one DNS entry in the N5200.

    If Thecus is reading these boards, can you guys please increase the size of the password field to 32 characters?
    Same Here...
    I am a stickler for very long passwords and feel rather restricted to just using 12 characters as well.
    I would be great if this could be revised to more than 15-16 or more characters at least but 32 would be great too .
